One thing to note is RFC6570 does not allow the dash "-" character in variable names.
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6570#section-2.3
Many popular programming languages do not allow the dash as a valid character in variable names.  The only non-escaped punctuation character allowed iby RFC6570 s the underscore.

Changing the variables in the URI templates to use underscore instead of dash will have the added benefit of aligning with the variable names used in the code snippets (e.g. task_Id)
