Subject: Difference between Fork and Decision


Difference between Fork and Decision

The ebBP standard states (on page 63):
An XOR Fork may be designed to operate like a Decision, but a Decision cannot be an XOR Fork.

For me the difference between Fork and Decision seems to boil down to the point that a Fork may be used for modeling non-determinism while Decision cannot, because a decision selects only one of the possible transitions, and the other(s) is/are automatically disabled.(page 63).

Is that correct?
If not, what actually is the difference between an XOR Fork and a Decision?
If so, shouldn't a ConditionGuard be obligatory for a Decision.ToLink? In all examples found, every Decision.ToLink has a ConditionGuard.
