Stylistic fixes (minor)
Nothing new, just re-phrasing and capitalization.

Incorporate feedback from TWIM discussion
This article received some good feedback from #twim:matrix.org in
Matrix. Some clarifications I made:

- @cos:hacklab.fi mentioned that Element/Synapse are open-source; I
  opened the article by mentioning that FOSS alone isn't enough and
  added a note on their complexity to the matrix/element case-study
- @sorunome:sorunome.de mentioned that there is no "reference
  implementation" of Matrix; I rephrased a sentence to state that
  Element "practically serves as the reference client implementation".
- Clarify that Element builds "most of" the spec instead of being in
  charge of it; the Spec Core Team (SCT) is a different entity but is
  made mostly of Element employees.
- Changed leaving implementations out of decisions to leaving
  implementation feasibility out of decisions.

  got on IRC and Lobsters.

Clarify that WhatsApp isn't unique
The Hacker News discussion revealed that the article implies WhatsApp is
unique, when it really isn't. It was simply topical.
