I agree, this would solve many issues with this article. I feel it needs some trimming down in the demonstrations. A number of them are not that relevant to the titled topic or sufficiently important: e.g. Project
Tornado and Facebook's connectivity lab (both air-to-ground), Its degenerating into a

would have the same objections noted in the history log - the this is really about laser communication and not other optical communication in space. Perhaps adding a bit about the mirror retro-reflecting light on the moon would alleviate this objection
Leaving it alone for now to see if anyone else
