Can you provide a concrete example of a possible edit? (I'm applying the logic of the article).
Mantel instead of mantle is one that jumped out at me.
EDIT:
> “Nadella is a repeat befuddler. His first email to employees, sent just after he assumed the CEO mantel on earlier this year, was filled with bombastic and false platitudes:”
mantel: a beam, stone, or arch serving as a lintel to support the masonry above a fireplace
mantle: a figurative cloak symbolizing preeminence or authority <accepted the mantle of leadership>
