Are you saying that they are *currently* better explained by actually
existing external documentation, or that it would be better to have them
explained by external documentation instead of the Policy Manual?  If
the former, could you point to that documentation, please?

I'm inclined to agree with you, but since Russ is keen to reduce the
number of footnotes in Policy, it would be good to hear from him here.

That would be great.

Thank you for taking the time to work on the readability of Policy.
