Hi Katie, Maybe you are right. But what got me second guessing myself was "override" can mean "extend over; overlap." Second definition: 2. technical extend over; overlap. https://www.google.com/search?q=Override&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 It seems that extensions should extend. But maybe "override" is okay. How do you feel about using the word "countermand"? "Extensions MUST NOT countermand WCAG 2.0 conformance requirements and success criterion." Other thoughts?
