Actually I brought this up because there were more cases where I found that ALT knowledge is needed. If you don’t want this to be a normative reference and remove the sentence above (which I’m not sure is helpful), please also double-check all other occurrences of ALT and make sure the discussed case is also understandable without ALT knowledge.

Okay, that these bits can be ignored should be stated in the doc!
