 Each component of a model can be given a unique model component hierarchy level number.
 The top level model has a level number of 1.
 The level number increases by 1 for each level down in the model component hierarchy.
-The model component hierarchy level number is used to give \lstinlin!start!-attribute a confidence number, where a lower number means that the \lstinlin!start!-attribute is more confident.
-Loosely, if the \lstinlin!start!-attribute is set or modified on level $i$ then the confidence number is $i$.
-If a \lstinlin!start!-attribute is set by a possibly hierarchical modifier at the top level, then this \lstinlin!start!-attribute has the highest confidence, namely 1 irrespectively on what level, the variable itself is declared.

 A modifier modifies one or more declarations from a class by changing some aspect(s) of the declarations.
-The most common kind of modifier just changes the \emph{default value} or the \lstinline!start!-attribute} in a binding equation; the value and/or \lstinline!start!-attribute should be compatible with the variable according to \cref{type-compatible-expressions}.
