We did not require this (although an author could do this) because it is not always possible. For example, if there is a movie on the page, it is possible for an author to test for some level or number of flashes (say of lightning) before they publish. It is not possible to put a control on the page to change the number of lightning flashes in the movie. Since it is often not possible to control things individually we did not include that as a requirement. Instead, we used the criterion that have been developed for broadcast material. However, we plan to add an undrafted advisory technique for a user to specify the maximum number of flashes per second.
