I think the prose version is fairly clear and gives the most opportunity
for extra description if needed.  Of the tables I prefer 3.1.1.4 (with
the dots).

This is what prompted me to reply, though:

If extra effort (like side notes) are needed to accomodate a table, that
makes the table less attractive (to me). OTOH maybe the "required" column
could be turned into "notes" or some such thing, with there being notes
to indicate "required" or "optional" or "ordered."

But that's not what prompted a comment either. I simply wonder why there is
order needed in some (or all) elements. Why does it matter that "row" and
"identifiers" and "auth_results" appear in fixed order? I realize that the
corresponding xs:sequence tags occur in RFC7489, and perhaps this wonderment
was addressed in old discussions, so maybe never mind. But in my naivete
I don't see the reason. (Maybe the reason could be stated.)
