The owner
The single named person accountable.
The part
What it is
Owning is not doing. The owner answers for whether it moved, escalates when it does not, and can say at any point what state it is in.
They may do none of the work themselves, and often should not.
The smallest level

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
