Some suggested tweaks follow.

Regarding the fourth paragraph about global and non-global ARIA states
and properties, put the second sentence first.  Since this is a section
about overrides, state the factor that overrides.  I'm not sure you need
the statement that non-global states/properties don't override.  I
suggest this rewording (I've kept the statement about non-globals):

"User agents MUST always expose global WAI-ARIA states and properties to
accessibility APIs, even if an element has an explicit or inherited role
of presentation. In this case, the user agent ignores the
presentation/none role and exposes the element according to its implicit
native semantics. However, user agents MUST ignore any non-global,
role-specific WAI-ARIA states and properties."

Secondly, the comment in the first example is a holdover from the older
version of the example.

<change>
<!-- 1. [role="presentation"] negates the implicit 'heading' role
semantics but does not affect the global hidden state. -->
</change>

<to>
<!-- 1. [role="presentation"] is ignored due to the global 'haspopup'
property. -->
</to>

Finally, I don't understand what the numbers in the examples mean.  They
are both "1."  Maybe they should be "1." and "2."?  Dunno.
Hope that's useful.
