Comment : | The section of the requirement in item (d), "Operator intervention or logic that evaluates received or stored data shall not re-direct program control within a program routine." is a carry over from the VSS 2002 standards and is considered non-sequitor. Rather obviously, operator intervention (like pressing a button on a screen) will re-direct program control. If there is some other intent behind this requirement, it should be clarified, otherwise, it should be removed. Proposed change: Remove the first sentence from the requirement.
