Which datasheet, and will the system design actually be varying them at
runtime - if it will how will it do so? This is the settings for the
particular system and generally a lot of these rails will get fixed at
design time for various reasons (for example, the analogue supplies will
usually depend on the analogue system design).

Again, is it really the case that this will happen in this system?
Nothing is currently able to actually do that, and unless every consumer
using a given supply is hooked into the regulator API things will go
wrong when some of them start doing so.
