 Let *e* = *e<sub>0</sub>* be another event (possibly another
 `m.room.power_levels` event). We can compute a similar list of events
     [*e*<sub>1</sub>, ..., *e<sub>m</sub>*],
-where *e<sub>*j*+1</sub>* is the `m.room.power_levels` event in the

+`m.room.power_levels` event in its `auth_events`. (Note that the event we
+started with, *e<sub>0</sub>*, is not included in this list. Also note that it
 may be empty, because *e* may not cite an `m.room.power_levels` event in its
 `auth_events` at all.)
