	Looking again at that Caveats section, it is not clear (to me at least) why these comments are an instance of "Caveats, limitations, open issues, or dissenting views".

The Caveats section says: "The problems created conditions where an impasse might be reached while solving a problem, and the example would demonstrate a smooth, expert solution to the same problem." Is it really the *same* problem they are given as a worked example? Or is it an isomorphic problem? -Ken
