Hmm. You've described this as the difference between a blend and a
derivative rather than a blend and a remaster. That's not really
accurate. You can make a derivative that is neither a blend nor a
remaster. For instance, Ubuntu is a derivative, not a remaster, and my
critiques of the remastering process and philosophy don't apply.

To fix, change the heading from "Difference between a Blend and a
derivative" to "Difference between a Blend and a remaster", or else
rework the content to clearly make the distinction.
