Re: Glossary terms related to conformance

I remember the discussion

but I did a search for these terms and did not find them anywhere in any of the success criteria.

I know it says

> “some terms that were blocked by the conformance discussion actually are used in WCAG outside of the conformance section


but where do you see these terms used in and SC? 

I did word searches and couldn’t fine them anywhere in the SC.   

not sure where that sentence came from. 

Can you help me?
