The [SVG 2 Changes appendix](https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG2/changes.html) is more of a log describing the editing process than a net result. There are other cases where changes have been made and then re-verted or obsoleted by other changes. During the different working draft versions of the spec, the changes for the latest working draft were always highlighted. Later on [in that list](https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG2/changes.html#structure), you'll see > Properties formerly defined on the SVGElementInstance object are now defined as a mixin interface extending SVGElement As you guessed, this was part of the Shadow DOM re-write, trying to re-introduce a bit of backwards compatibility while still moving forward. If you have a concern about the final spec, please file a separate issue. I'm closing this one as I don't think this is a major inconsistency. (Although I recognize that it means that the Changes appendix is not as useful as it could otherwise be.) -- GitHub Notification of comment by AmeliaBR Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/330#issuecomment-314844773 using your GitHub account
