Dave, Sure, you can add an new appendix to justify the inconsistencies but it still doesn't resolve the issue of not exposing the in-scope parameters to satisfy the DKIM Service Architecture and all receiver needs related to DKIM. The mandate to impose a certain behavior is unrealistic and does not represent current implementations.
