This is a very well written and organized paper. Your opening claims are well written and stated, and you do a good job supporting them for the duration of the paper. I like all the references made from the article and how you tie them back in to your central claim. Maybe some more references to the trace outline could be made. All in all, it is a very well done analysis.
