**I'm submitting a grammar fix for the README**


# Description
Previously, the README contained "They are particularly useful in distributed systems, *though can be used*..."
To a native speaker, this sounds a little strange, whereas "They are particularly useful in distributed systems, though **they** can be used..." is clearer and more grammatically correct.

# Motivation
I'd like to make the README easier to understand

# Tests
I read it out loud and it sounded better and made more sense.
