-The ISO/IEC Directives-Part 1:2019 edition was restructured to  (1) rename "Annex SL" to "Annex L" and (2) expand the scope of Annex L to include IEC management system standards (many of whom had been and remain, resistant to adopting the new structure and/or common content). However, the 2022 version has returned to "Annex SL" and no longer includes IEC.

However, the 2022 version has returned to "Annex SL" and no longer includes IEC (S-prefixed annexes only apply to ISO standards, while those without the prefix apply to both ISO and IEC standards).

-Using this analogy, ISO //defines// "risk" as being both "negative" and "positive" in much the same way as a "day" can be interpreted as including both "light" and "darkness".
