Re: [PATCH] Documentation: Fix minor grammatical and formatting issues

Thank you for the review! I appreciate your detailed feedback.

Regarding "to to" and "that that", I agree that they might be
technically acceptable.
However, I personally find them a bit harder to parse and they
increase the chance of misreading for me.
Your suggested alternative for "to to" is much clearer!

Ultimately, if leaving them as-is is perfectly fine, I'm happy to
defer to your judgment.
But I would certainly welcome the improvement if you decide to revise
those phrases.

Thanks again for your time and consideration.
