This way of identifying a peer is problematic since there is no separate
bootstrapping information entry for a peer when acting as a DPP
Responder (well, ignoring the mutual authentication case here) since no
QR Code (etc.) was actually read on the Responder device. As such, the
upper layers would not really have any context for determining what the
particular peer bootstrapping information identifier might be in such
cases.

Forgive my confusion, but the code above what you quoted indicates that clearly we are providing a conf result, which means that we are the configurator and we have already authenticated the peer with the public key from the enrollee's qrcode. Am I misusing / misinterpreting the struct?
