Just two quick points: (a) I wasn't criticising IE's mastery of the English language so there is no hypocracy involved and (b) the sentence makes perfect sense but I hadn't realised that it could be read in a different way.
Unfortunately, with the sheer amount of writing we have to do, the occasional phrase which is open to different interpretations sometimes creeps in.
