I assume you mean (typing)?  This constraint is introduced
in the appropriate place for where it happens in constraint checking,
and it relies on notation not introduced until this point.

Moreover, I believe these constraints are effectively stated
informally in PROV-DM.  I am happy to address it by putting a table or
figure that summarizes the typing constraints early in
PROV-CONSTRAINTS (in the non-normative section), if that helps.

A new section 2.3 was introduced with the figure.
@James: to add text - this is editorial.
