Here is a Sibelius mock up of your file btw. I didn't do this btw, but

The PDF is in the directory.
Looks to me like he spent all his time on the curved lines and didn't
pay any attention to getting the music notation right -- none of the
music lines up correctly metrically, and the spacing is quite
strange.
I completely agree. And the weird inverted "3" for one of the triplets,
and the brackets have shoulders just before the wings, and there are
collisions all over the place, and the inverted curved V that Dennis
had doesn't seem to have the right intensity in this version. I don't
think this example would stack up against best practice by a
professional engraver. Dennis' original example had a few minor flaws,
but it was clear, much cleaner, and head-and-shoulders above this
version.
But in two hours, probably on a lark, I don't think we should be too
hard on this fellow. For professional output, that would be another
question.
