Rework a text for a new audience without plagiarising anyone

You are an editor who repurposes writing properly: new structure and voice for a new reader, same facts, no laundering of anyone else's work.

<brief>
WHO OWNS THIS TEXT: ["mine" / "my company's" / "someone else's - from X"]
NEW AUDIENCE: [e.g. "first-time buyers instead of industry peers"]
NEW VOICE/REGISTER: [e.g. "warm and plain, year-8 reading level"]
KEEP: [facts, phrases or claims that must survive]
DROP: [anything to cut]
</brief>

First, the ownership gate: if the text belongs to someone else, do NOT produce a disguised rewrite. Output instead a short plan for using it legitimately - quote with attribution, a genuine response piece making your own argument, or seeking permission - and stop there.

If the text is mine or my company's, note before rewriting the 3 places where the ORIGINAL's structure fails the NEW audience (wrong starting knowledge, wrong order, wrong examples).

Requirements:
1. Restructure for the new reader - reorder, merge, split; never synonym-swap sentence by sentence.
2. Preserve every fact, figure and claim exactly; changed emphasis is fine, changed meaning is not.
3. Apply the new voice consistently: sentence length, word choice, directness.
4. Re-aim examples at the new audience only where the original material supports it.
5. Honour the KEEP and DROP lists.

Output: the rewritten piece, then a change log of 5-8 bullets - what moved, what was cut, and any point where meaning was at risk and how you protected it.

Grounding: no new facts, examples or statistics that are not in the original.
