Sections 10.8 and 10.9: Please confirm that these
instances of "value" should not be "values".

Original:

 These
 include the value of settings, the manner in which flow-control
 windows are managed, the way priorities are allocated to streams, the
 timing of reactions to stimulus, and the handling of any features
 that are controlled by settings.
...
 Ensuring that processing time is not dependent on the value of
 secrets is the best defense against any form of timing attack.

These should both be "values".

Values is correct in the first case, but the second should be "a value"
by which it means "any value".
