This key briefly describes the event, change, or circumstances that caused the feature to go out of existence. This description often helps to clarify the reason why the OHM feature exists until a certain end_date=*, even though the feature existed in the real world after that date. For example, OHM might have a separate feature due to a renaming or move.
