So, is it this simple?  :-)

I checked what people say and found this:

  https://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2013/03/punctuation-junction-periods-a=
nd-parentheses.html
  https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/6632/where-does-the-period-go=
-when-using-parentheses/6633

(I wanted to check the Chicago Manual of Style but it=E2=80=99s now behind a
paywall.)

It would seem that =E2=80=9Csee next step=E2=80=9D (for example) does not c=
ount as a
parenthetical sentence (it=E2=80=99s not a sentence because it doesn=E2=80=
=99t start
with a capital letter), and thus the period should go outside the
parens.

In short, it looks like most or all of the changes you made are
=E2=80=9Ccorrect=E2=80=9D, but you might want to double-check, also to acco=
unt for the
typo Giovanni noticed.

I think this will invalidate translations of the affected paragraphs.
Is that a big deal, Julien, or is it easily resolved?

Typographically yours,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
