The removal of the quotes around "better" discards an entire layer of meaning.

It also loses the voice that was present in the 'before' version. Typos/misuses and all. More tangibly, an entire layer of meaning was dropped when it removed the quotes around 'better'.

I see your point, and I agree the result can feel impersonal and stiff. But, I'd say the overall improvement is more important than one possible deterioration. Quotes are easy to put back if I'd think it was important (it was not in this case)

Please reply in Swedish only. Remember to not use any tool to translate to avoid subtle layers of meaning being removed. It's easy! /Native speaker ;)

Me not native speeker. AI help me too get my point front much more cleanly. It hard not look like dummy.

Im of course exaggerating, but it is so easy just to run the text through an AI to make it sound "better" without changing what im trying to express.

I’m not a native speaker, so AI helps me get my point across more clearly. It’s hard not to come across like a dummy otherwise.

Of course I’m exaggerating, but it’s really easy to run the text through AI to make it sound better without changing what I’m trying to say.

This is really useful, but is this correct?

persons = 10~15 // → 10~15

budget = persons * 1~2 // → 12~27

Should it not say 10-30?

Really neat idea! However, half of the world has Monday as the first day of the week. A setting to change that would be nice :)

Also there are some holidays missing for Sweden. This is stated in the Swedish Annual Leave Act, which establishes that Midsummer's Eve as well as Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve is to be considered equivalent to a Sunday.
