--- ### Manual Review of TSwap Now that we've exercised some of our tooling, it's important to remember that our manual review is never replaced and is an invaluable part of the process. Now would be a great opportunity to take a break before diving into the next section of manual review, after which we'll go through writing our TSwap report. When you're ready, let's take a look at `TSwapPool.sol` and make note of some of the things we find.
