Small inaccuracy in standard #206

Open DavidSagan opened 5 years ago

DavidSagan commented 5 years ago

In the standard:

In general, all data sets shall be stored as homogenous arrays or matrices respectively,

The word "respectively" does not makes sense here. This sentence should be:

In general, all data sets shall be stored as homogenous arrays or matrices,

Also, instead of "stored", "represented" would be more accurate. The standard does not care about how a file format "stores" physically, we care about how it is represented, e.g. through a format's official API.
