Since there is no interest in discussing these topics in a more constructive 
way, I might as well finish with https://www.json.org/fatfree.html.  This is 
(IMO) how you obtain ubiquity (=universal).

It is OK (indirectly) claiming that Universal CBOR is c**p and its author is a 
charlatan.  However, Universal CBOR is [currently] the only show in town.

Hashing "raw" (non-wrapped [*]) CBOR is not a mystery and enveloped signatures 
are featured in PDFs.

*] Linguistic issue: I managed confusing "unwrapped" and "non-wrapped".  Fixed 
in -02.

The core is a profile of CBOR as defined by RFC 8949, designed to fit a specific 
(but very big) "market”.

First of all, we don’t seem to have consensus we need a “profile”.
Second, if we do need another one, this profile should be explained in terms of 
the CBOR documents we have; you seem to have an aversion to that.
And the spec certainly should not claim to be “universal”.
