What is this IRS letter saying? (photo inside)

Backstory:
On July 18th, I mailed a required form really late to the IRS, and asked them to waive any late penalties.

Result:
This is the response I received from the IRS a few months later.
The areas I highlighted in yellow show that I'm all good. But then the area I underlined makes it seem like I owe something.
I think this is just a badly written letter, and the IRS actually decided to waive any penalties.

I think you need to send them a 0 dollar cheque just to be sure. You should call them and figure out if the penalty is a flat fee or a pourcentage of the 0 dollar. If it is a pourcentage you should be fine but you should both cheque "penalty" and "interest" as both could be flat or flat + %. Now I am confused, too!

I think just bad automation. I think that that sentence is always there, for those that do have outstanding dept, but I’m not a US taxpayer

Cant you call them?

Just my 0.02.
