I think there's still the four backticks in observabilityProblems.md@L332. I'll go ahead and apply the suggestion from Co-Pilot.

Or, alternatively, let me break the build 🫠

Weird, I had deleted the 4 backticks from my file. Well, now it's failing for prettier again. I'll have to have a look later.

Mea culpa. I'll quickly run prettier and push the change. Or, alternatively, drop the commit with the applied suggestion

I am so sorry. GitHub won't let me do things to this PR. 🙈
Can you drop the Co-Pilot suggestion and force-push with lease please?

git reset --hard HEAD~1

Inclusive Language check is failing because it detects Mastercard as something that's not inclusive enough... Because of Master. 🤦
I'll try to get it unblocked.
