Errors identified: incorrect relative pronoun 'whom' should be 'who' because it is the subject of the clause (Incorrect use of pronouns - ID 12) and 'cause' is informal/incorrect conjunction for 'because' (Incorrect conjunction use - ID 16). Also missing contrast connective 'but' and sentence needed commas for clarity. Suggestions: use 'who' for people who perform the action or have the quality; replace 'cause' with 'because' or use 'but' to show contrast; add commas to separate clauses and improve readability. Note: I corrected multiple related issues to produce a grammatically natural sentence that maintains original meaning.
