What it is

A new capability, a performance target or a competitor doing something. Each produces a reasonable-sounding case for one exception.

The attributes it carries

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.
