For what it's worth, I dislike that wording on grammatical grounds --
it sounds like two complete sentences joined by a comma, which is poor
style -- and think Amit's wording is probably fine. We could fix the
grammatical issue by replacing the comma in your version with the word
"because," but that seems unnecessarily wordy to me.
