Iirc it was Ian who told me a while ago that our German based use
of "namely" in cases like this isn't really appropriate; I'm not sure
I've fully understood where "namely" would be usable or not, so
I'm simply trying to avoid it now in most cases, and I'm therefore
not sure if it was appropriate to be used here. I'm also not sure
whether my assignment of meaning to "i.e." is really correct, but
I'd generally view it as an analogue of "that is", rather than the
"specifically" you appear to mean here.
