If that is the case, then the clause would be weakened. It would mean that
it's OK to require pinching, just not tight pinching. I don't think that
was the original intent. But regardless of the original intent, many people
can't pinch or twist their wrist - lightly or tightly. I support the change
of putting "tight grasping" at the end of the list.
