 Standardizing derivatives is motivated by use cases where formalized
 machine-readable access to processed data enables higher-level processing.
 
-The following sections cover additions to and divergences from "raw" BIDS. Raw data are
-data that have been curated to BIDS, i.e. a BIDS “raw” dataset does not have another BIDS
-dataset as a source. If you are in doubt if your dataset is "raw" or
-is "derivatives" ask yourself the following question: "Are my data derived from at least
-one other valid BIDS dataset?" if the answer is yes, then this is a BIDS derivative dataset.
