I don't think 7480 is unclear, Mario. Section 6 describes the syntax of the identifiers that are to be registered with IANA and used as prefixes. Section 8 then says, "The extension identifier is used as a prefix in JSON names and as a prefix of path segments in RDAP URLs." That's very clear in my mind. There's nothing there that says "you can add OPTIONAL information if you wish".
For what it's worth, I've sent some off-list email to our chairs and our AD with a request for guidance here. We're not making progress with these back-and-forth discussions.
