Alternating which clanker proofreads your text makes for more bugs found, and different kinds of bugs found.

- Who will read your book?
- Sir, I expect quadrillions of avid readers.
- I mean, counting only paying humans.

Damn proofreading clankers found issues that forced me to make notable improvements to my chapter 8 on types for OO. Thank you clankers, but damn that was hard. They find ways to misinterpret what you say, and you have to insist to make your point while acknowledging theirs.
Nice: clankers are now used to flagging some of my expressions as Gallicism. Earlier clankers would either let it go, or flag things without explaining me why so I'd ignore them.
