Clauses and subclauses in this document are annotated
10+
with a so-called stable name,
11+
presented in square brackets next to the (sub)clause heading
12+
(such as ``[lex.token]'' for subclause \ref{lex.token}, ``Tokens'').
13+
Stable names aid in the discussion and evolution of this document
14+
by serving as stable references to subclauses across editions
15+
that are unaffected by changes of subclause numbering.
16+
17+
Aspects of the language syntax of \Cpp{} are distinguished typographically
18+
by the use of \fakegrammarterm{italic, sans-serif} type
19+
or \tcode{constant width} type to avoid ambiguities; see \ref{syntax}.
