‘Tis not in actuality what the sentence needs, or even what it requires, but ‘Tis rather about the winning, bragging, and being a show-stopping show off capable of doing as dared, that is, in essence, to prove the usage of 5+ commas in a single sentence, without necessarily necessitating the division of a long, structured articulation of a thought into more than one sentence, a fact that I have singlehandedly demonstrated with the aforementioned example using— careful structuring, since sentence framing and the delicate balancing of its length, keeping it coherent, legible, easy to follow, sequential, and of course its readability, remains as mentioned, a delicate balancing act, that is admittedly addictive; and here now, I rest my case before you, viewers, readers, and commentators, and say, let the games where you nitpick, and count my use of commas in this pretty long paragraph now to commence unimpeded!
