and

<app type="editorial"><lem resp="W.G. Claytor, TM Arch 663 (Version 1, 2021) 1"><supplied reason="lost">Σαβεῖνο</supplied>ς</lem><rdg><gap reason="lost" quantity="6" unit="character"/>ς</rdg></app>

The element <lem resp="W.G. Claytor, TM Arch 663 (Version 1, 2021) 1"> is not so good on two levels

On a different but P3 related topic. One has to skim read the whole PDF to get the information. The relevant information is in paragraph 2 of the Description: This is not hard because the whole PDF is small, but imagine the PDF is much longer. To be able to point at the paragraph / footnote of the PDF for where one finds the information would be optimal. This is why it should be possible to guide to a paragraph with a clear URL reference.
