> It's just you; the sentence is written in straightforward manner using pretty typical vocabulary.
This sentence alone, is poorly worded. Is it straightforward or using pretty typical vocabulary? The qualification is unneeded, unless it's not typical. Perhaps, graciously, it's typical for a region.
The phrase "headed off", instead of "blocked" or "pre-empted", is unclear as an idiom.

- Supermancho 2y agoIt's the term straightforward, meaning not unclear in any sense vs "pretty" (meaningless adverb or an attempt to hedge the next term) typical vocabulary. Typical doesn't even make sense in context, given the multiple meanings that can be derived. These phrases are clearly in conflict. You've already demonstrated an atypical understanding of grammar, twice. I don't care if you disagree. Good luck with whatever.
