If this was only a provision in the software section, then that wouldn't
be an issue. We would have a different, non-AT requirement for closed
products; that way, when visual and at focus could be tested together,
they would be -- when not applicable, the standard wouldn't apply.

I see your point Allen. But we have a problem when they are joined
together.



Only one would be required and possible on closed products. Yet you
would fail this provision since they are both lumped together.



Suggest that they be separated so that closed products can conform to
those provisions is has to without failing them because they are coupled
with AT provision which they cannot by definition meet.
