In 4.8.6.3 How it Helps, suggest adding "attention" to this bulleted list: "Wayfinding requires many cognitive functions so designs should accommodate a wide range of cognitive impairments including those supported by other Design Patterns. For example:

Also, in the 1st paragraph in this section, suggest one change to make the clause about indoor navigation less absolute and more in line with outdoors clause: "The help required to address wayfinding issues varies per individual and also between indoor navigation, where there [are --> can be] more stimuli, and outdoors, where there can be more demands on memory."
