[[Data]] is a classification of objects, and a guard.

An object is [[Data]] if it is any of:
# an [[atom]] or literal, in the Data-E sense. (Example: 2)
# a graph exit, in the Data-E sense. (Example: [[__makeList]]) {{XXX|The set of such graph exits (called StandardGraphExit in [[E-on-CL]]) is an open issue.}}
# [[PassByCopy]], and its components are Data.

Data was formerly named '''DeepPassByCopy''', but that name does not acknowledge that some of the components (e.g. the [[maker]], usually) are not PassByCopy, but rather graph exits.
