Thanks! Yeah, it's minor but there is a quote that says God is in the details.

As far as I can see:
$ cd doc && git grep "number-of-jobs" | wc -l
3
$ cd doc && git grep "njobs" | wc -l
14

While it is minor, I agree that we could just make things consistent
across the board as you are suggesting, so LGTM.

Thanks!
Yeah, it's minor but there=C2=A0is a quote that= says God is in the details.
