Thanks for the positive feedback. As well as being good for my ego, it's
nice to hear that we're heading in the right direction. If users don't
speak up, it can mean "I silently accept" but it can also mean "you've
confused me so I won't say anything".

I certainly hope though that you'll only need the manual open the first
few times you use the feature. If not, I'd be concerned that the mental
model was not good enough and still needed some work.
