Nice post! Just a minor nitpick, I found it weird that you say "In the same way, we can show that the other two vectors that make up the inner quadrilateral are equal, and so the inner quadrilateral is a parallelogram."
This is true but it's not needed (it's automatically true), you have in fact already proved that this is a parallelogram, by proving that two opposite sides have same length and are parallel (If you prove that the vectors EF and GH have the same coordinates, then EFHG is a parallelogram.)
