The metadata mantra

"ALL ACTIONABLE METADATA SHOULD BE DISCOVERABLE METADATA"

This refers to humanly actionable metadata, but in searching out the phrase "actionable metadata," which I came up with independently, I came upon the concept of machine-actionable metadata, which had not occurred to me. The discoverability refers to legal discoverability. I have not thought through the recursive aspects of this.
