Add a Comma to the Populist Badge description

I noticed there are quite a few questions about the Populist badge. Some people are confused about its purpose, or upset about its existence, yet others simply wonder why they didn't get theirs.

I just want to change the Populist Badge's description from:

Highest scoring answer that outscored an accepted answer with score of more than 10 by more than 2x

to

Highest scoring answer that outscored an accepted answer with score of more than 10, by more than 2x

Adding only a single comma. Yes - this is a tiny change, but I think it will be clearer, because in my opinion the original description tend to mislead you to think that your own qualifying answer had to have at least 10 upvotes and be 2 times the accepted answer's score. I believe this change makes it clear that the accepted answer's score must be at least 10, while the qualifying answers score should be twice the accepted answer's.
