Hi, I appreciate your frustation.
You complained gently about text that wasn't ours.  It was copied from RFC8499.
We quoted the definitions to save you a trip to RFC8499 and back.

That's an entire RFC *JUST* for DNS Terminology.  Were you aware of this?
Was WARREN aware when he asked us to look at your nit, aware of that?

If using RFC8499 definitions is wrong in a document that deals a lot about
DNS, then we really really have a problem.  Especially for a DNS Directorate REVIEW.

Editing the definitions would just lead to confusion as people wondered why
we changed things.  Abridging things to omit the words you found unhelpful at
least makes it clear we aren't trying to change things.
My co-author suggested we just rip all our text out.

We shortened it to what we thought was essential, but maybe we cut too much.
