Why maintain this knowledge?
No justification recorded. This does not mean the knowledge is unjustified; no applicable assessment has been adopted.
Particular uses

Review or propose an assessment
Purpose authoring is optional. Propose a more specific default or a particular use only when there is something more specific to say. Each proposal includes its scope and reasoning in one market.
