For comparison, I show B. Bodhi's translation first. There are several code phrases and cryptic words that don't make any sense on their own without explanation. In my SP-Fluent translation, I "spell out" some of those code phrases so the sutta is more comprehensible. See link to my site, for B. Bodhi's KN Nidd commentary section explaining the sutta, which I mostly agree with.
