We have considered your request to remove the third paragraph of D.2
Terminology after "All examples are informative, not normative." on the
grounds of redundancy with D.3.1.

We find that the indicated text contains important information not
conveyed in D.3.1 and that its removal would therefore make the
specification less precise. It would also reduce compliance to the QA
Specification guidelines.

Since the indicated text was added in response to an earlier comment
from another commentor, we consider that removal of the indicated text
would be unwise.

Your earlier objection will stand on record, although we encourage you to
follow up in the next two weeks with further clarification if it was not
your intent to reduce our QA Spec Guideline compliance.
