I agree to this, and when classifying the comments, I've tried to follow this approach. But for OFFICE-3583, this in my opinion does not apply. The interpretation of the two sentences that do contain the term "escape angle" did not change because we replaced the term "escape angle" with "leaving angle" in a third sentence. Anyway, what's more important here is that the question whether or not an issue is marked as "in scope" doesn't has any impact on whether and when we resolve it. The purposes of the flag is only to enable counting and tracking of issues that are in scope. That's required, because a) if there are issues that are in scope we need to wait a week before we could request a CS ballot (but the actual number does not count), and b) we need to acknowledge only issues that are in scope. Of course, we may also care about other comments, but even in this case, I strongly recommend to track things accordance with the OASIS rules. Best regards, and a happy new year.
