The debate is focused on more than just a common wire protocol. Some are arguing
that interoperability does not require a common wire protocol; rather it requires a
common interop API. I agree with this view as attempting to define interoperability in
terms of a wire protocol is too low of an abstraction for such a difficult issue.
