Description

In the observable table one can introduce new output parameters (not specified in the SBML model) in observableFormula and noiseFormula.
Is it allowed to use those parameters in the condition table? Current specs say no, but that passage was written before observables were defined in a separate table. Not sure if intended or not updated.

Research direction

Read the current specification passage about condition tables, observableFormula, and noiseFormula, then review the linked pull request #562 for related decisions. Done means the specification clearly states whether condition tables may reference parameters introduced by those formulas and reflects the resolved behavior.
