• setAuthorizedEditor: The owner can set or revoke authorized editor status for specific addresses. Authorized editors likely have special privileges within the contract.
• excludeFromMaxTransaction: The owner can exclude or include specific addresses from maximum transaction limits. This is used to set exceptions to the maximum transaction amount for certain addresses.
• setMarketMakerPair: The owner can set whether a given pair address is considered a market maker pair. Market maker pairs might have different rules or restrictions compared to regular addresses.
• removeLimits: This function allows the owner to remove certain limits that are active in the contract. This could include transaction amount limits and wallet balance limits.
• send: The owner can use this function to send funds from the contract to a designated tax wallet address.
• lowerTaxes: Authorized editors can use this function to lower the buy and sell fees. It checks that the caller is an authorized editor and that the new fees are lower than the current ones.
