We indeed removed tosca.capabilities.nfv.VirtualStorage requirement from the VDU.Compute node since this capability is not defined in csd04, but is just mentioned by name.
The VirtualLinkable capability was in csd03, but removed from the TOSCA spec in csd04. It seems as a leftover from csd03 that the authors didn't properly removed all of its mentions. Regarding the reasoning behind this decision, see the last paragraph of the email. tosca.relationships.nfv.VirtualLinksTo was in csd03, but removed in csd04. tosca.relationships.nfv.VDU.AttachedTo wasn't even in csd03. One might wonder (and indeed you wondered) how to deal with all the missing parts and inconsistencies throughout the TOSCA NFV specification. The answer, simply put, is that this is a work in progress, still on a draft level. A lot of effort is invested currently in TOSCA around the questions of creating a NFV profile that combines 'naturally' with the simple TOSCA profile. This is quite an intricate task to be honest. You can try to contact the authors of the NFV profile for questions and possible participation.
