Onel5969 Appreciate you reviewing this article. I have taken your feedback on-board and have added sections including an introduction section. I note you removed the "most successful competitor" comment, I have added this back in as it is a "neutral point of view" statement which is backed up by the facts in the "competitive summary" section. As a consequence I removed the "issues boxes". Thanks!
