Previously, it was unnecessarily difficult to parse the sentence to determine that "HTTP response" and "internal state of the server following the request" are the coherent ideas. Even if length wasn't an issue, e.g. "... and checking both the A and B are correct", the sentence still feels a bit fragile without a "that". Since the second phrase is indeed relatively long, and "internal state of the server" is a reasonable guess for the second coherent idea, the "the" helps to reset the reader's expectation about where the next coherent idea starts, and ends. Lastly, having "both" in front of the two phrases encourages an assumption that they're shorter (which is especially problematic for the second phrase), while having it at the end of the sentence helps to anchor the end of the second phrase; this is especially true since the absence of "both" before that point encourages an assumption that you haven't finished reading yet, given that two things have been mentioned. |
