Use the backend to get all the info about how a variable is used by the dosing plugin.
For example (your implementation may vary):
age: "Dosing is lower for geriatric patients and contraindicated for pediatrics"
sex: "Patient's biological sex is used to calculate their ideal body weight"
weight: "Used differentially with the ideal body weight to compute dosing"
... etc.
Currently, the 'i' column has a mix of of "how" the variable is calculated by the data provider, and also why the variable is needed by the dosing plugin.
e.g.,
This field should not include 'patient age is calculated from their birth date' because the dosing plugin has no information about how the age is computed. In fact, it might be a simulated age that the user types in, thus the statement would be wrong.
