Thank you to all for updates to this draft! My bits of feedback: I think it was overkill to remove (sometimes referred to as "forensic reports") from section 7. I don't know enough to know if there's an IETF terminology reason to remove that, but assuming not, my recommendation is to restore it, just because it helps drive understanding -- driving the connection that regardless of which term is used, that's what we're ultimately referring to. Meaning, it bridges an understanding gap, and that's generally a positive thing. Also in section 7, I don't understand this statement: "On the other hand, a Domain Owner publishing an internal Report Consumer, can put a dot-forward at that mailbox." Could somebody ELI5? I mean, I know what email forwarding is, and I understand most of these words, but I think there's context missing. (I'd also suggest rewording it to not use the inside baseball term "dot-forward," but I'm not able to offer a rewrite because I'm missing something about the broader context of the statement.)
