question about property value cardinality

[Keith Swenson <KSwenson@us.fujitsu.com>]

Here is a citation from the notes of the Apr 28 meeting:

Q: (Fred) Is the resource properties value multi-valued

A: No.

I don't understand this answer.  If the properties are only allowed to be single valued, the simple Get/Put operations would be sufficient.  But WS-RP includes  Get/Update/Insert/Delete  operations.  This implied to me multiple values, otherwise Update and Insert are only minimally different.

 

Can someone clarify why there are all four operations for single valued properties?
