(earlier comment moved to discussion page -- Commentary pages are for advice to users of guidelines, discussing perhaps legal doctrines they should be aware of when modifying the guidelines, etc. An analogy might be an FAQ, but an FAQ generally only provides more detailed information. The Commentary pages won't necessarily do that, but are more about discussing the range of choices that can be made, and what choices have been made in the Model Guidelines and why. Discussion pages are for comments about drafting, what should be included or not included, structure, organization, etc. If anyone can find a clearer explanation of the difference, go for it. There is also an attempt to explain the difference on the Main page.)
