I'm wondering if this should live somewhere else as a general piece of guidance (which is true of edk2 as well) rather than in this requirement list. I'm not certain, but mulling this.

EDK2 doesn't have a hard dependency on this, meaning that overlapping resources descriptors will still allow the system to boot.

Patina, this is a requirement. If this ends up living somewhere else, then we need to reference it as a dependency in our documentation.

At least for now we can get feedback on what is written, and then take the results somewhere else.
