I agree that this is the way I would put it for MYSELF. However see my
earlier posts. I would reverse that order for the reasons given about
who the reader is.

Plus, we were taught even in primary school (PLEASE do not take offence
at that anybody), that the basics of writing informative prose was 1.
Intro, 2.Get straight to the point, 3. Add other supporting stuff - in
that order. It always made sense to me when the reasons for doing it
that way were explained.
