Per SCSI Architecture Model (SAM-2, SAM-3), iSCSI is very clearly
a "SCSI transport protocol" (as opposed to a SCSI application layer protocol).
Parallel SCSI, Fibre Channel etc. are all "SCSI transports" per SCSI conventions.
That is all the critiqued abstract is trying to describe.
In the context of an *Internet* RFC, it seems sensible to use the normal
Internet terminology -- unless one very very clearly indicates that a
term is being used in some different semantic. One might postulate that
the document's editors and RFC-Editor could work out a mutually agreeable
editorial change here to add clarity.
