The question of "narrowing of scope" (i.e., limiting the applicability of an element) has recently been debated as to whether it is an acceptable refinement. It is not clear from the CC and the CEM that all aspects of a requirement must be covered.
If iteration is used to narrow applicability to a portion of the TOE, the collection of all the iterations must cover all aspects of the requirement.
Specific Changes
The CC v2.1, Part 1, section 4.4.1.3 is updated per interpretation 019.
