In reading this, we are conflating outcomes and methods https://www.w3.org/TR/wcag-3.0/#outcomes-structure and https://www.w3.org/TR/wcag-3.0/#methods-structure . The "you should" leads to how one would do something, thus a method to achieve.
14:19:25 [Jemma]
three bullet items are 1)Provide headings for sections of content
14:19:25 [Jemma]
2)Make headings descriptive of the content that follows
14:19:25 [Jemma]
3) Organize content so the headings make locating and navigating information easier and faster.

14:29:57 [Zakim]
Jemma, you wanted to ask about sectioning element
14:31:51 [Jemma]
yes, it make sense that we think beyond web.
14:33:07 [jeanne]
Should we move to more granular Outcomes? Or stick to presentation, Function, and semantic?
14:33:08 [Jemma]
fyi, sectioning element examples include nav, main, header, footer.
14:33:52 [Jennifer]
The sectioning element examples are HTML -- which is not tech neutral.

1) Headings organize content (outcome for "Structured content")
14:35:51 [jeanne]
2) Uses visually distinct headings (outcome for "Structured content")
14:36:04 [jeanne]
3) Conveys hierarchy with semantic structure (outcome for "Structured content")

The explicitness clarifies expectation for developers and designers. Key to remember that this is not exclusively for developers, as it needs be considered earlier than at development. The designers and product folks I worked with literally fought tooth and nail because WCAG isn't explicit and detailed.
14:50:25 [Skotkjerra_]
But try asking a lawyer to phrase legislations in plain language -t heir argument would be that that is by no means precise enough. But that is their profesion, this is ours - they are both requiring skills - we cannot change that, IMHO
14:50:42 [Jemma]
yes, landmark is part of this discussion.
