-The ISO/IEC Directives-Part 1:2019 edition was restructured to  (1) rename "Annex SL" to "Annex L" and (2) expand the scope of Annex L to include IEC management system standards (many of whom had been and remain, resistant to adopting the new structure and/or common content). However, the 2022 version has returned to "Annex SL" and no longer includes IEC.

-Using this analogy, ISO //defines// "risk" as being both "negative" and "positive" in much the same way as a "day" can be interpreted as including both "light" and "darkness".
