I mean when reading the file /proc/.../comm, then the string seems to
have a trailing newline (LF).
Perhaps something like "provided" or "given" would have been a better
word, but not really perfect either.
And "written" or "stored" would have also been wrong IMO.

I'd also think it's enough, which is why I had even written, that you
may pick whichever you like better.
