A nit, perhaps, but those two clauses are saying different things.

The classification system *is* a statement of intent.  If there's an
intent to maintain backward compatibility in future releases, then
"Volatile" doesn't express that intent.

I hope this isn't being classed as "Volatile" merely because it's
written by a third party.
