Hmm, "semantics" is uncountable rather than plural[1], so I'm not sure if
"this semantics" is actually a grammatical mistake (just like "Can I drink
this milk?" is fine), but I'm fine with your suggestion. I actually
considered using "the" to avoid having this discussion. ;)
Committed with your suggestion applied then. Thank you for your review.
