The only other thing I could think of is, *if* you're looking for a swing feel at letter G, to write it in eighths with a marking saying "swing" instead of triplet subdivision. Up to you ofc but to me it's a lot cleaner to look at.

I actually edited the score pretty heavily this morning and changed even some of the notes and markings. I changed it to just labeling that section "swing" written with regular eighths because I had a similar thought, but I ended up going back for the same reason I initially nixed the idea—I think I like it with the triplets notated because it feels more exact. I appreciate the comment though, and I ended up keeping the label "moderate swing" for that section for what it's worth.

Fuck logic, that shit is boring, lame and does not always support my opinions.

The other reason it's probably a decent idea to keep it there is that classical players with not a lot of experience playing swing might appreciate having the subdivisions laid out for them. Not a bad move at all, either way works!
