Thank you @p1-0tr, looks like a lot of comments but they're mostly style guide nits.
Also wondering if this FAQ needs to be adapted as part of this PR? https://deploy-preview-21533--docsdocker.netlify.app/desktop/troubleshoot-and-support/faqs/general/#can-i-pass-through-a-usb-device-to-a-container

| It is not possible to pass through a USB device (or a | ||
| serial port) to a container as it requires support at the hypervisor level. | ||
| While USB device pass through is not supported by Docker Desktop, USB over IP can be used to connect common USB devices to the Docker Desktop VM and in turn be forwarded to a container. For more details, see [how to use USB/IP in Docker Desktop](/manuals/desktop/features/usbip.md). |
