| The electrode `name` MUST be unique within the `*_electrodes.tsv` file. When a dataset contains multiple probes, electrode names can be constructed by combining the contact identifier (as provided by the probe manufacturer or principal investigator) with the `probe_name` to ensure uniqueness. For example, if two probes each have a contact labeled "1", the electrode names could be "probe01_e1" and "probe02_e1" to distinguish them. |

Minor: "principal investigator" isn't used elsewhere in BIDS so adapted it to what is commonly used. Otherwise, looks good to me.
