In many cases, that will be an SVG.

I don't think so, but I could be wrong. If there isn't, then this SVG-specific 
document is certainly the wrong place to introduce it.

(images look a little jarring in dark mode).  If the proposed change does include 
such a prohibition, then that would be a change.  I think the new text may be 
going too far, but this could also be addressed by clarifying the text below:

Publication formats should present the version that is best suited to each format. In 
many cases, that will be an SVG.

certain display conditions like dark mode MAY be included.  The text MIGHT already 
allow for that, but it's not clear to me.

    The text doesn't forbid it, and neither does "SVGs must render in a single static 
configuration without dynamic elements or responsive design features" forbid it. Then 
"SVG tooling and implementation decisions are made or overseen by the RPC" allows the RPC 
to do the right thing.


I think upthread there was some argument that "Publication formats should present 
the version that is best suited to each format" implied that there should be one 
version per format, so perhaps some clarification is in order.

Then a subtle change will do it "Publication formats should present the versions 
best suited to each format".
