[sv-bc] 21.2 Compiler Directives Overview

21.2 says,

All compiler directives are preceded by the (`) character. This
character is called grave accent (ASCII
0x60). It is different from the character ('), which is the apostrophe
character (ASCII 0x27). The scope of a
compiler directive extends from the point where it is processed, across
all files processed in the current compilation
unit, to the point where another compiler directive supersedes it or the
processing of the compilation
unit completes. The semantics of compiler directives is defined in
3.10.1 and 5.6.4.

Regarding the last sentence:

1. If the sentence is needed at all, then it should say, "are defined".

2. But I don't see that 3.10.1 and 5.6.4 add anything significant to
21.2. I don't see the need to say the same thing in three different
places. Can't we just say it once and then cross-reference from the
other places?

Thanks,
Shalom
