Why is paragraph 2(f) deleted in Ind AS 36 while its number is retained?

Paragraph 2(f) is deleted because Ind AS 40 requires the cost model for investment property. The paragraph number is retained to remain consistent with IAS 36. The other reasons relate to different deletions, namely fair value measurement and transitional provisions.
