Be aware! Some “software systems” that read and analyze grammar will sometimes “complain” or flag “passive voice” as “needing to be re-written” – even though it is not only acceptable in some circumstances, it may be required for precision or bias. For example, if you are writing a science paper – you didn’t do ***it*** (and maybe not “he/she/it”), but ***it*** happened to correlate with an action.

Hopefully that software can now be configured to mitigate that annoying conclusion.
