I think we revised the wording we left off with at TPAC was:
(Level AA) [New]
A mechanism is available to postpone and suppress unnecessary interruptions and changes in content, unless they are initiated by the user or involve an emergency.
Unnecessary interruptions: Secondary information, pop-ups, or actions that are not part of the workflow.  Error, success, and warning messages, timeout notifications, and live updates when the purpose of the application is monitoring are not unnecessary interruptions.

LOL....I need to sleep

This (I think) Is the 2.1 AA text

A mechanism is easily available<http://rawgit.com/w3c/wcag21/purpose_of_controls_changes2/guidelines/index.html#dfn-easily-available> to postpone and suppress interruptions and changes in content, unless they are initiated by the user or involve an emergency.

Lisa,
I can live with that, but that language is already in WCAG 2.0, as SC 2.2.4. Are you thinking about different language?

Interruptions  is at
Level AAA

Can we live with the current wording?

Interruptions can be postponed or suppressed by the user, except interruptions involving an emergency<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Frawgit.com%2Fw3c%2Fwcag21%2Fpurpose_of_controls_changes2%2Fguidelines%2Findex.html%23dfn-emergency&data=02%7C01%7Cakirkpat%40adobe.com%7C9f4112cf8fb64f2ae06508d53824ba11%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636476652751455732&sdata=GzSDRGCSLJBgP5ID0uIiVPmRMb0WBGaoR9Ea%2B8aGYBM%3D&reserved=0>.
