<sectiondiv>
The <sectiondiv> element nests itself, so it can be specialized to create structured information within sections. Another common use case for the <sectiondiv> element is to group a sequence of related elements for reuse, so that another topic can reference the entire set with a single @conref attribute.
Because the <sectiondiv> element can only be used within <section> elements, use the <div> element to group content that might occur in both topic bodies and sections.
