Sure, examples are easier to add late in the process but like anything else in the spec, they need to be accurate and serve a purpose. In this case, we're really talking about a more extensive discussion of complex script handling. That's a good idea but it's a non-trivial task and is not required for this level. This is why I think it makes more sense to defer this to the next level. We need to ship and to ship we need to stop making edits at this late stage. John Daggett
