Should the writer make this addition?

- Yes, because it explains why Chicago became a more significant center for jazz than New Orleans.
- Yes, because it provides a relevant historical detail about how jazz culture spread across the country.
- No, because it contradicts the earlier claim that jazz remained a localized phenomenon for several decades.
