    1. Thank you for this work. I think an overview of cabailities and organizing them in a meaningful fit for some purpose way is something that needs to be done. I do not have the bandwidth to dwell in.It came up for me in the context of considering workflows that individuals engage with and that leads to the identification of salient functions and features and provide a framework for actionable organization
