<br />
Clause 6.1.2 states<br />
With user-defined types it is possible to create sub-types (such as lists, ranges and length restrictions) on basic types, structured types and anytype according to table 3.<br />
<br />
Table 3 does not allow subtyping of component, port, default, and address.<br />
I suggest to add a paragraph, that all types can be renamed. E.g.<br />
<br />
6.1.2.6 Type Renaming<br />
<br />
A type can be defined as a synonym to another type. This is applicable to all kinds of types.<br />
