No, I won't.  Yes, it's okay as it's now.  What was not okay
is hardcoded sentence breaks.  Sometimes, there were two
spaces, but often only one, and sometimes more than two
(not in this particular manpage).  It's very very good rule
of thumb to start each new sentence on its own line, so you
never get to worry about them.  ;)
