"CWL is for dataflow style batch analysis, where the units of processing are command line programs. " On the https://www.commonwl.org/ page if you added that as the second sentence (after "The Common Workflow Language (CWL) is an open standard...") I think that would make it clear. Something similar could go into the spec with more info, though once you get to a spec you usually know why you are there. But maybe a Scope Statement/Section - "What it is" and "What it isn't" (e.g., "explicitly not for business process modeling") would be helpful there to bound change requests.
