Based on the "password length" example above:
There would have to be, for example, a min-password-length IE (which would be an Attribute) that has be be associated with a Subject IE (e.g. named "password-requirements") in order to be usable.

In this example, an instance of the min-password-length IE included in the password-requirements IE (and please mind these IE names are also exemplary names) would be collected and published by a SACM collector wrt the Target Endpoint that is the data source that in a well-defined/expected location contains this "value of 14".

Does this illustration clarify the concept?

Do we need to add expositional text anywhere to improve comprehensibility?
