I wish I had asked this during the WG discussion, but I do have a question.

Section 12.2.1 paragraph 3 states:

"The designated expert should prevent collisions and confirm that
suitable documentation, as described in Section 4.6 of [RFC8126], is
available to ensure interoperability. References are not limited only
to RFCs and simple definitions could be described in the registries
themselves."

Does this mean that no duplicates in the RDAP Reverse Search Mapping
(section 12.2.4) are allowed?

If this is the case, that means a reverse search of "fn" will only
apply to jCard and cannot be applied to JSContact or SimpleContact
since the registration for "fn" is jCard specific. Is this
intentional?

I see this in section 5:

"Documents that deprecate or restructure RDAP responses such that a
registered reverse search is no longer able to be used MUST either
note that the relevant reverse search is no longer available (in the
case of deprecation) or describe how to continue supporting the
relevant search by adding another mapping for the reverse search
property (in the case of restructuring)."

It implies that duplicates are allowed, at least to me.
