This is only the case for JWST. This needs to be clarified with something like: "{...} is not specified, the way the context is determined depends on the observatory. For Roman and HST, the default latest context is determined by consulting the CRDS server or looking in the local cache. For JWST, the default build context is determined by consulting the CRDS server to find the appropriate context for the calibration software version you have locally installed."

Same comment as above. get_default_context only defaults to build if the observatory is JWST. Otherwise it defaults to latest.

Again, see above. I think it would best to add "build context" info, not replace latest with it. You could add to the first sentence: "Latest Context is the .pmap which is nominally in use by the Roman or HST pipeline. For JWST, see "build context" below.

Need to clarify that JWST defaults to build context, while Roman and HST default to latest. Both context types are available to all missions, so I don't agree with replacing "latest" with "build" across the board here. We need to include information describing both, and where they apply.
