Inded Subaru is still AWD in all the ICE product line. However, Subaru only has the SUV EV ported over from Toyota (it reviews poorly). It's sole hybrid is in the Crosstrek which essentially only exists on paper. Subaru is losing the EV/hybrid/PHEV game. It's very sad to see (as a huge Subaru fan).

The language we have today is the balance marketing, security reviewers, and engineering could reach for the masses to feel informed without being overwhelmed and confused.

It would be fantastic to have a 'more details' page, where the nitty-gritty is detailed for those who care.

But perhaps the less radical approach would be to pay them enough such that they can take the time to judge the work on it's merit.

I assume you have not TAed: I'd like to agree with you, but the realities are it is poor pay for crappy work. Most students don't care about their work. Most students seem to be unable to follow basic instructions. I go out of my way to help students if they care and stay late at labs for these students, but I have no patience for wasting my time because someone wants to show off and deliberately make my life harder. As is, when I'm being paid for 6hrs of lab + marking/week, and I am already spending 8+hrs a week because students can't format their assignments properly, don't write in complete sentences, etc, I have zero interest in patting this guy on the back. Instead, I have to do more work for no pay so he can feel clever.

Not at all; TAs are paid poorly, have other more interesting work (i.e., their research) to do, and spending the time to deal with 'clever' is not a good usage of time. Sure the student learnt more, but that doesn't mean this is what they should have handed in. Have fun on your own time, but don't waste the TAs time.

The new Mendeley iOS update is a vast improvement over their previous version. May be worth a look

This is a fantastic example! Took me having to turn on code highlighting to catch it.
