Thank you.

I think you forgot to remove the item I was giving as an example:
"Absence of in-the-clear communication" is still there and erroneously
pointing to the HTP user firewall exception task.

It may be.

There's for sure room for improvements, but I don't see what Tails
lacks from this list. Differences are:
* We've decided to use a fixed UTC timezone for everybody, to avoid
partitioning the anonymity set in case it would leak. So we call
this a feature.
* Locales are generated at run time to save some disk space at the
expense of a few more seconds at boot time.

We're still improving the list of additional fonts we might want to
ship in the future. This fonts list is part of a "Resources" section,
and arguably would be worth being moved to another, dedicated page.

Thank you for noticing this outdated sentence. Removed.

The ticket you're mentioning was closed when we decided to keep UTC
for everybody, that is a few months ago.
