> Value requirements aren't "must"/"shall", etc. The current text under parameters reads: "lifeTime: the number of periods that the depreciation will occur over. Must be a positive integer."
> No, we are *defining* the function and so state: "lifeTime: the number of periods that the depreciation will occur over. A positive integer."
> Such that if I have an evaluator that properly implements DDB, by definition it only accepts a positive integer for lifeTime. 
> May seem like a small thing but the text becomes confusing when value types are may/will/must, etc. Simply state the requirement and then leave it alone.
> This is an example case. Will sweep for others.
