SysMLv1: Why ParticipantProperty is needed for an AssociationBlock. (And why you should NOT use the optional Cameo Systems Modeler variant with owned ends.)

SysMLv1.6: HOWTO: Use an AssociationBlock with a Connector and ConnectorProperty «connector» in Cameo Systems Modeler

SysMLv1: Webel strongly recommends a looser, more "logical" modelling strategy over modelling practices with strong coupling to "physical" ownership. Many of the Webel Best Practices support this approach.

SysMLv1: TIP: If a symbol for an element that appears on a Block Definition Diagram or a Package Diagram is not directly within the namespace of the context of that Diagram indicate the ownership using display options or one of the containment devices

SysMLv1: A 'part property' in SysMLv1 does not formally include 'port' (which is considered a special kind of property), even though the Port metaclass in UML2 extends Property and a 'port' may have 'composite' aggregation and be typed by a Block.

SysMLv1: CAUTION: The notation and recommended use for PropertySpecificType changed significantly between SysMLv1.2 and SysMLv1.7. And the spec itself does not seem to use the new notation (which is also not supported by Cameo Systems Modeler v2024x)

SysMLv1/UML: Prefer owner path indicators over Package containment operators (which are fragile).
