RD AD conceptual messages #362

Closed mcr closed 2 years ago

mcr commented 2 years ago

** Section 8.2. This section is a subsection of Section 8 which seems to be scoped around "conceptual messages". It isn't clear to me what "conceptual messages" or channel properties are being described here.

** Section 8.3. It isn't clear to me what "conceptual messages" or channel properties are being described here. This appears to be a restatement of the role of Reference Values already covered in Section 3.

The reader is expected to know that "roles" input and output "conceptual messages" that are conveyed by some form of protocol payload or message. The term "conceptual message" isn't intuitive IMO. There is a definition in the Intro that seems adequate but if the reader didn't internalize this then it may require rereading (which I'm OK with).

Conceptual Message was a compromise that nobody really loved but also nobody could find a better name for. Maybe we can look at this now with fresh pairs of eyes.

"Conceptual Messages" wasn't a great term, but we went with it.
