My fear is that, as Don seems to be showing, people will

Hmm, I think I missed the start of this thread, so maybe I'm missine
something, but from what I see, the key question seems to be: is this
intended a teaching tool or a reference? If the former, then
"getting people to think" is an issue. If the latter, then perhaps
we can assume that people can already think.
If it's trying to be both, then I suspect it will be, of necessity,
less than perfect in either role.
I Disagree. If it's to be a reference, then cross-references get to be
more and more important. So, to *properly* cross-reference the summary
with the DFSG, a small note like (Viol DFSG #2, maybe #4) is a nice thing.
As a paralegal, I must say it's a nice and proper thing to reference
things down to paragraph/section.
