OK, that works by making the intent more explicit.

Right, I did get that sense from reading the document, however ...

... since I do not participate in the IDNA work, I am unaware of the
associated arcana (code points such CONTEXT{J,O}, MSR-4, etc.) used in the
domain.  As such, I am evaluating the I-D as a generalist GEN-ART reviewer,
and not one steeped in the art of IDNA.  From that perspective, many
constructs in the I-D escape my appreciation, but I suspect that the review
process does guarantee that the IDNA folks get to see the work, and I am
convinced that the manuscript makes eminent sense to them.

Great, thanks.

Much appreciate your time, John.
