I also found the term "activating a transient BCE" very confusing. It is 
hard to interpret it to mean that the transient BCE is becoming a normal 
BCE. But since you had this in the terminology section, I didn't 
complain. :)

But if you can find some better text, it would be great. One option 
would be rephrase "activating a transient BCE"  to "converting the 
transient BCE to active BCE" throughout the text. I leave it up to you.
