maybe "no purpose, so they are not listed here and not permitted in capability mode."

by "fully or partially" I'm trying to convey that the system call either never accesses gn or aa (say, close), or internally performs capability mode checks (say, openat). Would be good to have a way to concisely express this.

I would drop the comma after "purpose" and keep the text you have. Maybe add a comma after "In capability mode"
