[Med] Why? The text is clear the orchestrator acts as DOTS server. As such, it can ignore/accept hints.  

 It is sending

[Med] Yes. That filtering rule is that would be applied by the DMS if it has sufficient resources. 

 The adverse impact is legitimate users whose

[Med] This is a check at the DMS side. This check applies independently of ** where ** the filters are applied. This is not specific to this NEW text.
