| The IsSanctionedSimpleUnitIdentifier abstract operation verifies that the given core unit identifier is among the simple units sanctioned in the current version of the ECMAScript Internationalization API Specification, a subset of the Validity Data as described in <a href="https://unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35.html#Validity_Data">UTS #35, Part 1, Section 3.11</a>; the list may grow over time. As discussed in UTS #35, a simple unit is one that does not have a numerator and denominator. The following steps are taken: | ||
| The IsSanctionedSimpleUnitIdentifier abstract operation verifies that the _unitIdentifier_ argument (which must be a String value) is among the single unit identifiers sanctioned in the current version of the ECMAScript Internationalization API Specification, which are a subset of the Common Locale Data Repository <a href="https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/maint/maint-38/common/validity/unit.xml">release 38 unit validity data</a>; the list may grow over time. As discussed in UTS #35, a single unit identifier is a core unit identifier that is not composed of multiplication or division of other unit identifiers. The following steps are taken: |

This text contains the only use of "current version of the ECMAScript Internationalization API Specification" that I could find (everywhere else uses "this specification" or "ECMAScript 2022 Internationalization API Specification"). A followup should reconcile that, ideally matching ECMA-262 (which seems to prefer "this specification").

As described in UTS #35, prefixed unit identifiers such as "centimeter" and "gigabit" are not simple. I've updated the text, but I'm thinking I should also rename the algorithm and replace the table id. Thoughts, @tc39/ecma402-editors?

Yeah, the terms "single" and "simple" were hammered down in UTS 35 and now ECMA-402 has bitrot. I think we should use the new UTS 35 terminology ("single" rather than "simple").

These editorial algorithm changes are gratuitous, but they do fit in with the rest of the PR.
