What are "Support Events?"

Unlike treatment or measurement events in a protocol, "Support Events" are events strategically placed to make ready, facilitate, guide, or otherwise manage a study. 

There are five major types of "Support Events."  They are
Context Specification, Guidance Events, Event Iterations, schedule Events, and Unspecified Support Events.

In this hypothetical experiment, we will be using all but Unspecified Support Events and  Event Iterations, which is used primarily in performance studies.
