Abstract
This work considers the intersection of explanation-oriented language design and software variation management, two seemingly disparate research areas that turn out to be quite complementary. Successful explanations are often highly variable to adapt to the needs of a particular user, but this also makes them complex and unwieldy unless supported by a sound theory of variation.
