 There are two main constraints for using Jython:
 
 * The latest Python supported version is 2.7
-* It is not straightforward to use Python C extensions
+* It is not straightforward to use Python C extensions, which may prevent 
reuse of some libraries
 
 Review comment:
   Would rephrase `reuse` to `use`.

>  does not sufficiently highlight limitations of the API. It should probably 
> have a prominent disclaimer right at the top stating that this actually isn't 
> a "Python" API but Jython, which likely means that the user looking for a 
> solution to run native Python code won't be able to use many important 
> libraries, which is often the reason to look for Python support in first 
> place.
