forbearance can have a much broader context and other uses.
for example, a state may employ forbearance in enforcing a law. e.g., in essence, NY State currently maintains a forbearance policy on taxation of tobacco products sold on/by native-american reservations (most recognized as sovereign nations the u.s. government) following a major 1997 protest by the seneca tribe.
