I don't buy that explanation. The sections don't have different "roles"; they merely have different perspectives. In my mind the references are "continuity references" — they are references which establish the things that are in DWU. All of them could be rewritten in the style your demonstration uses for "story connections". The fact that one is in "Section1" and another is in "Section2" is merely a matter of authorial choice. It's not because the dividing line is especially bright.

And, from a format standpoint, I don't understand why one section would be bulleted and the other would not.
