The attempted use cases here are c) a time limit before which doing X is too early to be POSSIBLE d) a soft time limit after which doing X may be too late to be effective, based on whether someone else did Y in between both of which, while equally sensible concepts, including them in the definition of "deadline" would be too much of a stretch. FALSE.Isn't 4 days a deadline for objectors to make their voice heard? That is like your sense (b) above. You can object after 5 days but it might not work if the performer acts before that.
That's d). You can object after 5 days and it might work if the performer doesn't act before that. It's definitely closer to the usual definition of "deadline" than c) is, but still not there IMO.
