[Cross-cutting] Remove marketing language, filler phrases and fake case studies #1901
A pervasive tone issue across every part of the book: marketing language, clichés, "transformation journey" vocabulary, and fabricated case studies without names or figures.
Remove these words and phrases where they appear without substance
"in this chapter we will..." / "this chapter explores..." (filler reformulations of the heading)
"European organisations face unique challenges..." as an opening
"The diagram illustrates..." when the text paraphrases the image instead of adding information
Fake case studies to remove or name
19_management_as_code.md:286–287: "Consider a global software company operating in regulated financial markets..."
04_adr.md:234–242: "This workflow prevented significant disruption during a recent platform rotation..." (vague anecdote with no figures)
26a_prerequisites_for_aac.md:100–104: "A multinational financial services group offers a useful illustration..."
21_digitalisation.md:66–78 and 194–213: Spotify/Stripe/Netflix/Capital One with unsourced figures, and duplicated within the same chapter
24_best_practices.md:3: "...lessons learned from teams operating at scale across finance, public services, healthcare, media..." — none of these "teams" are ever named
Unsourced figures to cite or remove
21_digitalisation.md:38: "£500 billion in digital transformation initiatives" — no source
21_digitalisation.md:44: "reduces manual effort by up to 70%" — no source
21_digitalisation.md:255–263: GE/Siemens/ABB anecdotes without a source
Expected saving
~100 lines scattered throughout + a significant improvement in tone.
