The Subject Location Uniqueness Objective may demand that built-in nodes be merged
Applications, to achieve the Subject Location Uniqueness Objective may require that built-in nodes be merged
Let's reserve "demand" for what syntactic features with inherent
topic map information are with respect to nodes.

cannot be determined
Why?

The Subject Location Uniqueness Objective may demand that built-in nodes be merged, but the effect of merging their built-in values cannot be determined by the situation features of the node that results from their merger. Therefore, TM Applications must define rules for combining the built-in values of built-in nodes.

The TM Application must define what the standard says it must
define. Argument about why something is required is inappropriate here.
