In line 115 we read

        This specification defines basic components used to build
        multilateral federations and describes how to apply them when
        the underlying authentication protocol used is OpenID Connect or
        the underlying authorization protocol is OAuth 2.0.

We should be explicit since OpenID Federation is application protocol neutral, and therefore it can be used even without OpenID Connect or OAuth 2.0.

Below the proposed changes

        This specification defines basic components used to build
        multilateral federations and describes how to apply them when
        the underlying authentication protocol used is OpenID Connect or
        the underlying authorization protocol is OAuth 2.0.
        However, the principles and components outlined can be
        used with any other application protocol.
