Wrap Up
Jonathan thanks viewers for watching the detailed frontline update. He appreciates the mapping support from JR. Jonathan acknowledges the videos are long but explains covering the entire frontline takes time compared to focusing on small sections like some other channels. He jokingly suggests listening at 1.5 or 1.75 speed for a better experience, then signs off.
