The former identify a range of address space and may hold contents of those ranges in the form of text records; the latter identify a single address (and hold no content of their own).

Yes, that is correct.

Now, among the section types SD/ED/PR, GOFF is a bit special in that those are nested - this is somewhat similar to the subsection concept, but it is explicit in the object file format (as opposed to, say, ELF subsections).

I try to implement this. Well, first I'll fix the failing test cases....
