Based I believe primarily on statements from Gregg (who is arguably our best authority here, given that he is a WCAG WG co-chair), we are not to do more than single word or phrase replacements in our "describing how to apply" work.  That constraint isn't found in such wording in our charter.  

I'm not sure where the " we are not to do more than single word or phrase replacements in our "describing how to apply" work.  "  came from but it was not from me. 

And we have done more that that of course, in multiple places, where it was needed and or helpful.
