Proposed changes

  • Rewrote Message schemas, Blocks and Specs section to use clearer/up-to-date terminology that aligns with current product behavior.
  • Specifically, it removes references to “Blocks,” which are no longer a relevant or supported concept.
  • Also emphasized what parts of the Segment Spec result in downstream transformations (mapped events), versus what are just recommendations.

Merge timing

  • ASAP once approved
