Interesting - but in several of the examples, I might use a semi-colon rather than the coma used here or the full stop/period you suggested. When would a period be a better choice than a semi-colon?

Semicolons slow down the pacing of a paragraph, whereas periods speed up the pacing. You can use whichever one achieves the effect you're going for.
