Singular they isn't incorrect.

Do you interpret inner voice, thinking, and dreaming as occurring in the head because you innately know that's where it actually happens, or because you were told that's where it happens?
Plenty of emotions are felt in the chest. Excitement, love, despair, heartbreak. Seems just as reasonable to "intuitively know" that the soul lives in the heart or stomach.

They aren't nuts at all, let alone tree nuts. If you're also allergic to pine nuts that's as much of a coincidence as you being allergic to butternut squash or nutmeg.

It's a little ambiguous whether higher numbers mean more protein or more fat (convention would dictate protein but clarification would be good practice). Units would also be useful on that axis. Weight ratio, calorie ratio, or stoichiometric ratio?
Also pine nuts aren't a tree nut (nor indeed a nut at all). Likewise macadamia.

Just to clarify, is that additional drag in the direction of travel? Or is it the same amount in the direction of travel plus a small lateral amount in the direction of spin?
