Comment:
Could small be achieved with a more general statement? Eg, Legal, notice etc.
Its very close to being presentation at this stage IMHO.

If you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please reopen this bug. If you would like to escalate the issue to the full HTML Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest title and text for the tracker issue; or you may create a tracker issue yourself, if you are able to do so.

Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: I assume this is referring to the term &quot;small print&quot;. If so, then I think &quot;small print&quot; is, in practice, well-understood as being more than just text that is small. WordNet says: &quot;the part of a contract that contains reservations and qualifications that are often printed in small type&quot;.

I could change &quot;small print&quot; to &quot;fine print&quot; if that would be better. Please reopen the bug if you would like that change. (The two terms are synonyms.)</thetext>
