Dr Darren explains:
SysMLv2 is already a dream, but I have another dream, and in that dream, the code keyword for attribute is just these three letters instead of attribute:
att
For reference we may use:
ref
For definitions we may use:
part def
item def
...attribute keyword is often "skipped" because it is inconvenient to type ("too long"), so one ends up with basic refs, which is not bad per se:
:>> val = 1.1
However, AFAICT, Cameo SysMLv2 does not support a basic refs compartment, so to display the information one has to use full feature symbols, which takes up modelling real estate and can make View (diagrams) a bit harder to read. I'm not asserting that Cameo "should" according to the SysML2.0 spec have such a compartment (it isn't explicitly indicated under 8.2.3 Graphical Notation), but it would be nice to have.
It's sometimes necessary to show feature symbols if one wishes to show, for example, relationships from the feature (such as for educational reasons), or for structured attributes. But if a structured attribute usage has redefinitions that "skipped" the long attribute keyword, you are back to basic refs and you have to resort to verbose nested symbols again.
Just att would be nice.
I also had a nightmare in which the alternative keyword was 'val'.
