We need to clarify that not all numbered lists are procedures. For example, a process flow is most likely numbered, but it is not a procedure. The list of items in the flow may include actions performed by the system, which are not user actions.

Some writers have reported being directed to recast numbered process flows as procedures. In some cases, the writer responded by implementing a diagram, which creates an accessibility problem as the content of the diagram is not accessible to low vision users.

Clarifying the guidance about numbered lists would help alleviate this problem.
