The following line does not help to understand what it means and how it should be used. It is missing context and data file is a very generic term.

- hasDataFile: The `from` Element treats each `to` Element as a data file

Looks like it was just copied from the SPDX 2.X definitions.

@maxhbr If you want to create a PR, we can get this into 3.0, otherwise I'll target it for 3.1

If someone can explain to me, what a "data file" is, sure. But then it might even be easier to create the PR instead of explaining it to me.

It has been a very long time since this was discussed.

I'll move it to 3.1 unless someone wants to volunteer to write a PR.
