Expected behavior of non-cancelable events intervention is unclear #133

https://w3c.github.io/touch-events/#cancelability

First, this section covers two separate (but related) interventions, but that is not clear. The second paragraphs says "In particular", which sounds like it's clarifying the first paragraph, but it's actually introducing the second intervention. This should be clearer.

Second, the expected behavior of the first intervention should be more clearly specified. Should touchstart always be cancelable? Should the first touchmove event in a single gesture always be cancelable? What about touchend?

Please specify this more clearly so that conformance tests (see https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt/pull/34464) can be written against the spec.
