In a recent referee's report reviewing [2], it was pointed out to me that Theorem 2.2 in [1] was already known in the literature, and is (originally) due to Mammone and Moresi in [3]. Also in [3], the authors establish the excellence of inseparable quadratic extensions in a shorter way than I presented in [1]. As the paper [3] was unknown to me at the time of submitting [1], I hope by this note to acknowledge and credit [3] for the result(s).
