With reference to the use case provided in [convention/discuss#155](https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/cf-convention/discuss/issues/155__;!!G2kpM7uM-TzIFchu!m53z1g8rmF4oa7DTmxFPXLoatKeXJK-rkbdhYLQeO7PQOnvjJLFu2-rDk-5i8mbAaVdxaaQcp-Y$ ) --- two variables both having ``standard_name = "time"``, where one is a time average of the other and thus has ``cell_method = "time: mean"`` --- might it be useful to include a reference to this CF mechanism? Something like: > For **many** applications it **is** desirable to have a more definitive > description of the quantity, which **allows** users of data from different > sources (some of which might be models and others observational) to determine > whether quantities are in fact comparable. For this reason **each variable > may optionally be given a "standard name", whose meaning is defined by this > convention, possibly with further details given in the cell methods**.
