As an aside, I'd be willing to serve as an overall style editor for
finalized documents. I have experience in this area, and I could help
ensure stylistic consistency across the wide range of documents we'll
likely encounter.

I agree that nitpicking over grammar/punctuation is unnecessary, but
we should employ guidelines for person/tense/voice and other major
stylistic concerns.
