For the Product Backlog, it is the Product Goal, the Sprint Backlog has the Sprint Goal, and the Increment has the Definition of Done. They exist to bring transparency, alignment, and focus.”

Updates to the Scrum Guide are made at the watchfulness of Schwaber and Sutherland. They do so dependent on their encounters and criticism from the expansive network of Scrum clients who are actualizing these practices each day.
