I don't think we need to make all of these changes here—the product switcher will take care of helping the users understand where they're at. Let's change most of this back, but keep the second sentence:

Also, I think there might be more places we now need to make this change in, that have been written in since this PR was created.

Let me know if I shouldn’t add it, but it seems crucial because the article all about it.

Should we make it reusable data? It's repeated 4 times on the page.

Although there are a few other sentences that are also repeated, but they're not reusable data, so it's probably worth leaving as is.

Yes, they're not all identical, and this won't always be true, so we can resolve this 👍

Should I make it a separate sentence or add to the beginning of the first point?

We generally try to have an "opinionated" docs approach, so we stick to one recommended path

Since we don't control the JetBrains user experience, I'd recommend that we stick with one here and leave this out

1. In the popup menu, click **Open {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat %}**.
1. In the bottom right of the chat view, select an AI model of your choice from the {% octicon "chevron-down" aria-hidden="true" %} dropdown menu.

Why don't you have a variable with the product name for JetBrains IDEs? It seems like it's used a lot in the code.

Whilst this is true, we only use variables for our own products 😄
