 The choice between these two approaches depends on the data quality and the desired outcome.
 The residential approach is appropriate for using residential data, if available and accurate.

 ## Analysis
 
 For analysis, the package calculates various graph metrics of the street network, including:
 
-- Global efficiency [@latora2001]: In the context of Superblocks, this measures how the overall ease of movement across the city might change after implementation.
+- Global efficiency [@latora2001]: In the context of Superblocks, this measures how the overall ease of vehicular movement across the city might change after implementation.
 - Directness [@szell2022]: This indicates how Superblock implementation might affect the directness of routes, potentially increasing or decreasing detours.
 - Betweenness centrality [@brandes2008]: Identifies which streets might bear increased traffic load after Superblock implementation.
 - Spatial clustering and anisotropy of high betweenness centrality nodes [@kirkley2018]: Describes how clustered and non-uniformly distributed the expected traffic bottlenecks are.
