mv-vis's Issues

Suggest rephrasing to avoid confusion

The line " job interview has very similar values as church, but park and own room are rather the opposite", is a bit confusing. I first misread that park and own rooms are being said to be opposite, but the intention is to say that they are opposite to behaviors in church. Maybe we can clarify by rephrasing the sentence.
