Subject: What does slash mean?

The current draft includes slash notation for contextual variation. K+/- means primary context positive, secondary context negative.

I am implementing this. My parser can handle the syntax. But I do not understand what it means.

What is the primary context? What is the secondary context? The specification does not say.

When a user writes K+/-, are they saying home/work? Alone/with family? Weekday/Shabbat? Something else entirely?

If I am displaying blocks, should I label these contexts? What would the labels be?
