-We now define records. Terminology 'record' has been (hopefully
-consistently) used across the whole document.

-
-Yes, in fact, we don't assert the start/end events.

-
-Simply, this should not be seen as attribute, since this is its status
-at given instants.  It does not hold for the PE's whole duration.

-Changed to: For its WHOLE duration

-
-Yes, this is a concept from philosophy, W. E. Johnson, Logic: Part III (1924)
-Extra citation added, referrring to the book.
