My personal view is that variables are important concepts and deserve a separate section somewhere - possibly 3.1.6 as a separate part of 'File Structure'. I note that the preceding section on markup text does not contain any detailed syntax definition - not even a link to the relevant section.
I'd do the mods myself, and tried to do some earlier, but had difficulty in getting a Linux to work under a VM on my Windows machine. Unfortunately my health is a bit precarious and I can't take on any long-term projects.
