I agree with everything you say, though I think there may have been some
miscommunication earlier in the thread.

In particular, I was just trying to say that:
I looked at the diff between abstract and introduction, and there were some
noteworthy bits and some non-noteworthy bits.  The non-noteworthy bits are
the several extra paragrpahs in the introduction, since that's a large part
of what the difference between abstract and introduction is supposed to be.

Specifically, the "text that is not appropriate for an abstract" is
referring to text that is already (and correctly) in the introduction.  (At
least, that's what I thought when I read it the first time; I didn't look
at it right now to check.)
