Alex,

Thanks for the clarification; we have left the yang tree as was with regard to 
pluralization and have updated the alignment to match the New: text in your 
message (the plus lining up under the “e” of Features).  You mentioned two 
spaces in your message, but this was a single space update.  Please let us know 
if any further spacing is necessary.

Note that this change has been added to the current version: please refresh to 
view.
