Thank you for correcting my errors, and for teaching me things I had not been aware of. Apart from that, what I was aiming at, regardless of how far I missed the mark, from lack of ambition or lack of skills, was so different from the tutorial that you envision — thinking along different lines, writing from a different POV, and for a different hypothetical audience — that it makes no sense for me to try to improve or rewrite my “Introduction.” While I regret that I failed to contribute anything usable, I still learned a lot in the process, so at least I do not regret having tried.

Aw, don't give up so easily! It was inevitable I was going to say something a bit harsh, and quite remiss of me to forget a little "thank you", it is quite good really, just that of course pretty much everything can be improved. It's fine if your vision and mine differ, I was just trying to push you towards loftier goals, and it's in my nature to never ever accept the first thing offered. The one/only thing I think it misses is an "inspirational image", and I was just trying to think of a way to justify one. I often find myself reading/skimming quite a few tutorials, and "show me an image then" is a faily common thought. Maybe deliberately leave it to one side for a couple of weeks and come back to it, see how you feel then.
