What Tolerances Apply to Chamfers and Edge Breaks?

In this Question Line video, Jason answers the following question regarding tolerances for chamfers and edge breaks: 

In defining edge breaks on the print, Size x Angle, does the print block tolerance for angles apply to the angle of the edge break? Or can it be considered as a nominal target and tool tolerance controlled?
Same with angle of a countersink angle, is the print block angle tolerance also applied to countersink angles?

In this video, Jason walks through several examples to explain the various ways chamfers, edge breaks, and countersinks are dimensioned on a drawing. He also covers what tolerances apply under the ASME standards when none are specified in the field of view.  Jason emphasizes that the way in which the feature is dimensioned and toleranced should be based on how critical the feature is to the design.
