[SAH] Sorry, but "doesn't imply anything about the RDAP Conformance value in RFC 9083" is just not true. 7480 describes that prefix as being registered with IANA and being used to prefix extension elements. 9083 says "When custom JSON values are inserted into responses, conformance to those custom specifications MUST be indicated by including a unique string literal value registered in the IANA RDAP Extensions registry specified in [RFC7480]". That's clear linkage. I've said earlier that the errata change to 9083 could be from "lunarNIC" to "lunarNIC_level_0" to make the examples consistent. That change would also demonstrate that version information can be included in registered prefixes.
