Errata for my #ACESVCON24 session that attendees have kindly alerted me to:
1) There actually *is* a way to accept/reject changes in moved text (cycle through them with the Previous/Next buttons)
2) With the Compare tool, you can choose to have it show character-level changes instead of word-level

"The Grammar Table Takes On Chicago": should that "on" be capped in CMOS style? Is it part of a phrasal verb or is it an adverb?
