This interaction between these two standards is a human factors disaster
waiting to happen.

There is a good case to be made that SBoM in the EO to be the driver for
MUD adoption.

 And it would not be an SBOM for the SBOM because the SBOM license is
already in the data standard.

The only example currently implemented is the medical example.  I expect
the requirements on these to be defined by a FDA statement. Again,
otherwise, there will be a license for the SBoM, the components, the
sub-components, etc that are expected to be standard software licenses.

Except special cases, of which the most developed SBoM pilot is one of
these, and the regulatory constraints I expect for be forthcoming.  I think
Kevin is focusing on those fairly intensely right now.
