Please better define "Developer" and "Human Readable" #45

askpatrickw commented 4 years ago

For the comment attribute it says "a Developer comment" and then for description, displayName, 'displayUnit' it says "A localizable name for human display."

Last I checked almost all developers were humans. Can you clarify these descriptions and can you elaborate on how these attribute values are used upstream in IoT Central, IoT Solution Accelertors, etc..

I believe the description, displayName, 'displayUnit' are surfaces to application users in IoT Central where as the comment is not an only meant to aid the DTDL author(s). Who may not be developers but also probably human. ;-)

Thanks!
