Defects are categorized as minor or major within the checklist's applicable component block in the middle portion because this section is specifically designed to provide detailed information about each component's condition. This categorization allows for a focused assessment of the structural integrity and operational readiness of the cargo container. By documenting the severity of defects directly alongside the relevant components, it ensures that the necessary actions or repairs can be appropriately prioritized based on the significance of the defect.

This systematic organization enhances clarity and efficiency in the inspection process, enabling inspectors to communicate findings more effectively to stakeholders. Placing this information in the middle portion allows for easy reference during evaluations and supports compliance with regulations. Other areas of the checklist serve different purposes, with the upper portion often reserved for general information and specifics about the inspection context, while the lower portion typically notes overall observations or summarizes findings rather than detailing component-specific conditions.
