As I noted, there are two approaches: 1) dovetail the two domains and translate between them, which supports the subset of the capabilities of the two domains and requires translation. 2) layer a third domain over the two domains and treat the two as independent, relying on the common third domain to establish capabilities This is exactly the difference between pre-Internet internetworking and Internet internetworking. It's been 47 years since we tried the Internet experiment; it surprises me we haven't concluded whether it worked or not yet, but if this WG wants to try the pre-Internet approach one more time to see if it works, so be it.
