Hi Marga,
I second this amendment, although it introduces a minor awkwardness:

A "Chairman" is a person. A "Chair" may be an object.
I don't think anyone will misinterpret your proposed new wording into
thinking the TC has a physical chair that someone sits on, but the
s/Chairmain/Chair/ you apply does to me seem to introduce some
grammatical ambiguity that could make the text of the constitution less
clear than it might be.
Since I'm not a native English speaker, I'll assume for now that it's
just me and that there's no problem; but if other people do feel the
same way about this, perhaps now's the right time to do something about
it? Once this GR passes, it's going to be hard to fix that...
Regards,
