Ellipsis to Expand Supporting Statement Need to be an Obvious Button

Currently, if you write more than 250 characters for your Supporting Statement, an "ellipsis" cuts off the rest of your Supporting Statement. Reviewers can click the "..." to expand the Supporting Statement to read the rest of it. However, no where on the Wayfarer website explains that this is possible. The average person doesn't look at "..." and think this is a button that they can click and expand the Supporting Statement. The Ellipsis should be changed into an obvious button or link that says something like "Expand for More Information." As of now, it's almost useless to use more than 250 characters in your Supporting Statement because the vast majority of reviewers will never see it simply because they don't know you can press "..."

Related to this: why not just make it so the text is all visible to begin with, with no need to expand it?
Took me awhile to realize there was a way to expand the text, I thought it just cut off if it got too long. Would certainly be helpful if it were made more obvious.
