The word "you" threw me off.  Thanks for the clarification.

This discussion is many pages long and involves a wide range of keywords 
and concepts, begging the question:  What should be written, and where?

Many here have expressed the opinion that something should be added 
somewhere, but so far only two have offered specific suggestions, and 
they differ from one another.

In both of those cases (and more than a few others) I've very explicitly 
encouraged them to contribute their additions to the docs - once more in 
case it was missed:

     As I've noted here before, this blog post offers some helpful
     guidance for community members to get started contributing to
     the documentation to make it more of they want:
     <https://livecode.com/putting-the-you-in-documentation/>

My "Yes" was indeed a "Yes, and.." with the "and" being to please be 
mindful of the different types of documentation people use, and the 
intended audience and scope for each.

Specifically, I wrote:  "Go for it, but please be brief in Dictionary 
entries."

Hardly seems the stuff of wholesale discouragement.

And all the while the core question remains outstanding with no 
submission to the docs: What should be written, and where?
