By the way, the Oxford Greek to English Dictionary confirms one of the meanings of 'εκθέτω' to be 'set out'.

Please don’t be concerned by the fact that there is no comma in the Greek sentence, whereas I have included a comma in mine. Greek uses much less punctuation than English does, and the Greek punctuation rules are very different from the English punctuation rules. Therefore, it is frequently necessary to add punctuation to the English translation of a Greek text to make the English grammatically correct.

Discussion
I was not trying to, 'instigate a deliberate attempt of a futile argument....'with you. I do not savour your constant attempts to prove people wrong, at every opportunity you find. If you think something is wrong then say so, WITHOUT comments such as prompting the Asker in ways as to influence their judgement, such as saying ' then my answer is accurate', in your Text of 07.21. There is 'agree/disagree/neutral' that one can use.
What I said below is because, you 'disagreed' once then you edited your comments twice more, then you removed your 'disagree' and come up with your final comment. Obviously, you are confused.
'Στο ηλ. μήνυμα', λέει,'αποφεύγεται=ν' αποφύγετε ......' και το 'should' μπορεί, κάλλιστα
ν' αντικατασταθεί με το 'tο'. 'Στο', δηλ. ένα ή μια φορά, σ' ένα ίδιο μήνυμα....
As an Englishman you should know that. So, you are either confused, by the number of times you changed your mind over this one, or you are trying to pontificate, for the sake of, again, sowing confusion. See my explanation and the complete sentence, there.
