Please, what is "scilicet" doing in the second sentence?

@stevegis_ssg It means 'of course' - I meant to cut it to save space but I think I was distracted in mid-operation. Sorry!

@Minimus

Thank you so much! I had 3 years of Latin in high school 40 years ago so this account is a wonderful reminder.
