Hi, I was reading the org manual section on source code blocks and I
think there’s a small section where the clarity can be improved.

Section 15.1: Features Overview, first paragraph (line 16396 of org.org)
	original: …Users can control how live they want each source code block…
	proposed change 1: …control how [“live”] they want…
	proposed change 2: …control [the “liveliness” of] each source…

When the paragraph first introduces the term “live code block”, it’s italicized. I think
it should stay italicized for the rest of that paragraph since it’s the introduction of the
term (I had to re-read the sentence a few times myself before it fully made sense).

Just a small suggestion; it wasn’t detrimental to my understanding or anything but
more of a small hiccup.
Best,
Ian
