That fixed sentence looks good to me, FWIW.

I cannot speak to other quoted terms that you might have changed.
I think that those other changes should be handled separately,
not as part of the fix for this bug.  This bug is about these
particular terms: downcased and quoted.

IOW, if you want to consider/discuss what should be done (if
anything) about other quoted occurrences, please don't tie fixing
this bug to that consideration/discussion and possible changes
resulting from that consideration/discussion.
