Here is a sample document that demonstrates the issue that I think Tamara is having.
In this document I've set up the heading styles for 6 levels then used Heading 7 for Annex headings. Because these all share the same outline list template, the Annex numbers would restart if they are preceded by a higher level heading. In that case there 'could' be more than one Annex heading in the document and therefore 'Annex A' in isolation may not be enough to uniquely identify the paragraph number - that is where the number CONTEXT comes into play.
A more common example of where number context is important is if you wanted to cross-refer to paragraph a in these instances. You wouldn't have enough context to know which paragraph a was being referenced if you didn't know which clause number it was sitting under.
