Hi,

This is an interesting use-case.

What do you think is the benefit to dynamic cross-layer provisioning of
credentials (which I think is what you're describing) over an out-of-band
pre-provisioning of credentials? For example, the network operator already
presumably includes some credentials in the end user's device for
accessing the network (such as a SIM). Why not just use the same
credential for applications? Doesn't this bring the same stakeholder
benefits that you describe at the end of section 2?

Josh.
