Why is there a NONE in What? Shouldn't it be NONE by default or do we
want NONE to mean that we explicitly don't want it? That is, how does
NONE differ from when the policy is missing?

Is there always a strict order in the What entries? For instance, what
if someone wants people to do version bumps but not do minor features?
How would you specify that in this syntax?
Thank you in advance for clarifying.
