lost SpecGL requirement(s)?

QAWG --

It appears that we may have inadvertently dropped some explicit conformance 
requirements in the new (20021108) SpecGL version [1].  Referring to the 
20020826 version, for example checkpoint 3.1 ([2]) said:

"[...]the specification must explain why profiles are necessary, by 
reference to use cases and/or project requirements."

Such a requirement was repeated for several other of the DoV (for modules 
and levels, at least).

Did we discuss dropping these requirements? (If yes, can someone point to 
the decision?)

Or, was this an unintentional casualty of SpecGL reorganization?  (In 
CK13.4 there is allusion in the 3rd bullet to the requirement to be able to 
navigate to some statements, but we don't actually have requirements for 
the statements anywhere else -- in this sense, the 3rd bullet is different 
from all the others).
