  Erin that's a HUGE improvement I think. I fiddled with it a bit more
but someone might provide another formulation better balancing
clarity/brevity. Here's my attempt:

7A1.1. Notes qualify and amplify the formal description, and are
especially appropriate for recording that information which the
rules may exclude from other areas.
