What does it mean to “use the US GAAP Taxonomy” if the filing cannot refer to US GAAP Taxonomy linkbases?

0

As EDGAR Filer Manual v11 rule 6.3.6 says: There are dozens of XBRL US GAAP Taxonomies files to be used as templates to copy from during the preparation process, but their inclusion in an EDGAR filing tends to load unused linkbases and therefore introduces unwarranted complications such as unused extended links and a need for many prohibiting relationships. Reducing the amount of content in the DTS of the instance to its essentials frees users to more easily link the submitted documents to the linkbases of their particular interest for analysis.
