Bug Description

The of the 3rd paragraph says "Modifying existing programs is a matter of satisfying the type system that your changes make sense." Despite being able to understand the phrase I find the way it's structured a bit confusing.

One suggestion: "Modifying existing programs is a matter of satisfying the type system ensuring your changes make sense.". My be "type checks" instead of "make sense".

BTW, I don't really consider this a bug, more like a feature/improvement request.

r109 says "Modifying existing programs is a matter of convincing the type system that your changes make sense." I definitely don't want to say "type checks", since that's sort of begging the question. How does that sound to you?
