The exact change
The article said system structure produces behavior, that reinforcing loops always grow to a limit or collapse to zero, that Meadows's leverage hierarchy is an empirical ranking, that component analysis tells nothing about the emergent whole, and that aviation safety improvement was caused by the systems shift.
Qualified each absolute or single-cause claim to what the underlying ideas support, and clarified the heuristic status of the leverage-point ordering.
Suggested change
See before/after.
Why this is better
These were strong framings of genuine systems-thinking concepts. Corrections add the appropriate qualifications rather than adding new sources.
