What the aim is
What it is not CRM and CRMinf are not AI No attempt to automate reasoning The CRMinf extension only for “normal” cases Anything not “vanilla default” use full description
Conclusion CRMinf can document use of texts Full detail not always required Shortcuts using “normal” values may reduce documentation burden Development Effort Concentrates On What are the shortcuts AND What is “normal”
