5x expanded by Bloom6132 (talk). Self-nominated at 22:12, 18 August 2021 (UTC).[reply]

expansion checks out, article is long enough and contains no obvious signs of copvyio. It's sourced, as are both hooks, and both are short enough and interesting enough. I personally prefer the first hook, more impactful for me than the ALT. QPQ is satisfactory as well. This is good to go.
