Thanks Ray, this is much clearer. Just one minor nit. In the preamble you say "RFC 4071 was updated by RFC 7691 and, together, they make up BCP 101." That is not quite accurate. Try "RFC 4071 was updated by RFC 4371 and RFC 7691 and, together, they make up BCP 101." (RFC 4371 simply recognizes the existence of the IETF Trust.)
