The date
When the vision is expected to be reached.
The part
What it is
A year rather than a decade-in-general. “By 2035” produces different behaviour from “in the long term”, which produces none.
The date is a commitment about attention rather than a forecast, and saying so removes most of the resistance to setting one.
The smallest level
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.
Why this date
What sets the distance — a market change, a capability build, or a deliberate choice.
