[Med] My hidden comment was that ** interoperability ** is needed even for 
closed networks. We cannot imply that such networks should use private 
protocols because they are not connected to the Internet. 

 However, I prefer to mention this

[Med] OK, thanks. Hope you will reflect the above comment about 
interoperability.

[Med] The issue I had with that text is it assumes that intent are necessarily 
for services with limited scopes, while it is completely fine to use it for 
services with ** global ** reachability. 

IMHO, IBN is a dimension which is not tied to closed networks.

[Med] Yes, but there is that "only" in your text :-)

[Med] The concern I had with that text it is drawn from a perspective which may 
not apply to every controlled/limited domain. 

I'm working on use cases for which your list is great, e.g., BGP automation 
within massively scale data centers, but if I would like to run a fleet of 
drones for some usage, I don't necessarily need a "domain identity" or "role 
verification" as it the bootstrapping of the drones will be with an external 
control.

[Med] It depends on the "limited domain" scope and purpose. Manual operations 
can be perfectly fine vs. the heaviness of setting and configuring complex 
schemes.

[Med] Yeah, but the text assumes that such "role" is always present in a 
limited domain. Please consider tweaking the text. Thanks.
