Description
The XLSForm syntax is not supported by Build. For example, to refer to another field, we must use XPath syntax -- `/data/first_name`. This is not immediately obvious and causes confusion for users (e.g. https://forum.opendatakit.org/t/guide-me-on-setting-up-skips-on-build/13739/5)

Research direction
No documentation file or test is named in the issue. Start by locating the Build documentation for relevant, constraint, and calculate expressions; document that field references use XPath rather than XLSForm syntax, with an example, so users can configure these expressions without confusion.
