1) If I don't mention region 4 (sites not otherwise defined, which would only include Australia, and the conditions for Australia being eligible haven't happened are never will IMO), I'll get jumped on by the handful of Westercon rules-geeks. I'll move it to a footnote.
2) Denver is actually eligible, so the map is relevant. I mention Canada and Mexico because there are people who don't know this and think Westercon is a US convention, or that only Canada and the USA are eligible. Yes, I know better, and so do you. It's surprising how many things people assume to be true, like the people who assumed that the Worldcon rules required every other Worldcon to be held outside of the USA because we had a run of US/Not-US sites in the 2000s.
3) I already included an example, but I'll expand it and include a second one.
4) Explaining what a letter of intent or option is may help. I'll try.
