Proofreading target
Dainty is built for useful fiction proofreading, not maximum suggestion count.

Deeper local proofreading for dialogue punctuation, sentence boundaries, and grammar when the fix is clear.
Clarity and continuity notes for confusing references, ambiguity, and small continuity slips.
