suggest we rewrite"When there is a chance to extend a time limit, it should be noted that many users, within 20 seconds, cannot read instructions to extend a time limit. Using simple text can reduce the time it takes to read these instructions."4
to
"When there is a chance to extend a time limit, many users will require a few minites to read the instructions. When the time given to read the warning and instructions is short (such as 20 seconds) users with language or reading disabilities will not be able to extend the time limit. Using simple text can reduce the time it takes to read these instructions.

The best way to conform

Note comment from #830:

I initially thought that 2.2.6 should be made a technique of 2.2.1. On closer reading, I see now the hole it's trying to fill. Please include something near the beginning of the Intent section of each SC to clarify the difference.
