Review Comment:
   In the end, every comment reflects my opinion because I carefully reviewed, 
edited, or dropped the comments before publishing.
   
   I just checked the current table spec. There is only one mentioning of fully 
qualified for the data file fields, where the wording matching the definition 
of absolute path.
   ```
   143 referenced_data_file | string | Fully qualified location (URI with FS 
scheme) of a data file that all deletes reference
   ```
   
   I was saying that it was not explicitly defined in the terms list. does it 
make sense to define the term of fully qualified path in the bullet list 
formally?
