Fabulous and Fancy graphics tooltips have missing commas

The bug

Both Fabulous! and Fancy graphics tool tips have missing commas in certain parts.

The Fabulous! graphics tool tip should have the following text:

Fabulous! graphics uses screen shaders for drawing weather, clouds, and particles behind translucent blocks and water.

The Fancy graphics tool tip should also have the following text:

Weather, clouds, and particles may not appear behind translucent blocks or water.

The reason for the bug is that commas should precede the last word of a list having three or more words:

red, yellow, and blue

Workaround

A resource pack is provided below to fix the bug for the "English (US)" language. It also adds another new line to all graphics tool tips to make them look cleaner.

This use of the Oxford comma is optional. While it can be useful to prevent misunderstandings, it is not required to be used in a simple sentence. It is up to Mojang whether it should be added.

Note that you may be more used to the Oxford comma than some Mojang employees in case you're American, since it's more common in American English than in other variants.

This is true for UK English, whereas in US English the serial comma apparently is mandatory. And it should be noted that the default Minecraft language is US English.

The "English (US)" language is indeed the default, and therefore, the bug should be fixed for that language.
