I think inaccurate cropping only!  Have been using b4 review tui
(which is excellent btw!) Not sure I've gotten the hang of it fully yet.

Good enough.  Not sure there is a perfect answer for this one!

Might be useful as a breadcrumb in future but indeed not vital.
That was what I was assuming was the case.

Ahh. Indeed, I wasn't thinking ahead to it being visible after.

Modern job titles: LLM Soother!

I aggressively cropped previous email. For avoidance of doubt
the rest all looked good to me.
