There's an error in the text. It says they were Huguenots who left after the Edict of Nantes, which is not true. They left after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685, which had protected Huguenots until then. This last edict is called the Edict of Fontainebleau. So they left after the Edict of Fontainebleau.

So it's still technically correct in a Mitch Hedbergian sense?
I suppose one could also say “After the Edict” as if “the Edict” were the period of time it was in effect.

They are most certainly not. It suffers from the nude beach paradox: Anyone who wants you to see them naked, is not someone you want to see naked.

It's an odd paradox, since people go to nude beaches to be nude, not to be seen naked.
There's no implication that the people who go there want to be seen naked, just that they aren't easy on the eyes (of any innocent bystanders).
