The page describes a Firefox error message, and the two linked pages ("dynamic state partitioning" in the initial paragraph, and "State Partitioning" in the "See also" section) may provide some more context. Does that help?

That being said, it appears that Cookies Having Independent Partitioned State (CHIPS) may be a better page to link there.

@TheNewSound Can you check if one of those three pages already addresses your questions?
