Here is another take: instead of the lengthy explanations I had offered
previously, what about instead just adding the below lines at the end of
the "Property Inheritance" section:

---------------------------- Begin Quote -----------------------------

- ~EFFORT~ ::

  #+cindex: @samp{EFFORT}, property
  For column views, an estimated effort set through an =EFFORT=
  property also applies to its ancestors.  =EFFORT= properties present
  on any ancestors may get updated depending on the summary types for
  =EFFORT= columns in the column view.
