You can define the "set of documents" when you make your conformance claim just as you do when you make a WCAG 2.0 conformance claim. If you make a WCAG 2.0 conformance claim, you have to describe the pages for which you are making the claim. A concise description of the Web pages, such as a list of URIs for which the claim is made, including whether subdomains are included in the claim. Note 1: The Web pages may be described by list or by an expression that describes all of the URIs included in the claim. Note 2: Web-based products that do not have a URI prior to installation on the customer's Web site may have a statement that the product would conform when installed.

Also the term is used in “Website Accessibility Conformance Evaluation Methodology 1.0”. And if we are replacing “web page” with “document”, and if we rely on subjective criteria for determining what a “set of documents” is, we will end up with: 1. Authors, testers and users scratching their heads about what constitutes a “set of documents” and/or 2. Authors claiming that this SC doesn’t apply because their documents can be used independently.

My impression for this 2.4.5 item is that behavior outside Web is slightly different than inside Web because Web has an assumed linked set of pages almost by definition, while this is not true outside that environment—but can be in some cases.

What are the analogs to the sufficient we provide in WCAG now which would be acceptable outside the Web scoping? It wouldn't require you to change the content if the content were already met this provision. And why is it unusual that something that does not meet the criteria would have to change in order to meet it. This is true for webpages as well. What am I missing?
