For what it's worth, when I read the cover letter of this series, I
thought it was going to clean up the list of questions to eliminate
redundancy. In particular, of the three questions:

   What did you expect to happen?
   What happened instead?
   What's different between what you expected
        and what actually happened?

the final one seems to repeat what the first two ask, and it is common
when answering the third question for people to simply repeat what was
said in response to an earlier question.
