article is new enough, long enough and no obvious signs of copyvio. Personally, I like the primary hook and ALT3, so will leave it to the promoter to decide. Both hooks are short enough and interesting enough and sourced. The QPQ checks out too. I made a couple of minor changes, hopefully they're acceptable. Cheers.
