Hi Ismael, Having levels instead of names helped us discuss the content of each level without entering the bike shedding of what name is better. Level numbers are not to be used and the KIP states so as well. During early stages of the DISCUSS thread we used the numbers effectively. Is it acceptable to remove the reference to the numbers in the KIP and then leave comments in the DISCUSS thread referring to elements that are gone?
Regarding the Preview and API stability, during the discussion we found that having it was a necessary requirement for the community to start building components or plugins or whatever we need them to do without them risking loosing their effort with API changes.
