Page no. :  2-14
Line no.:  9-11
Comment :  Comment:
Even though the usability testing described in this section is only "recommended" and not required, caution should be  used when considering placing anything like this in a standard.  It will become a de facto standard, despite the lesser intent.

Recommended change:
Remove this section.

Rationale:
Unless it is a true standard, it should not be included in the standards guideline.
