Hi,

In one of the last slides it is asked maybe about other thoughts.

One potential other issue might be in the length of the MAC addresses, 
not just the ':' - '-' separator ambiguity, about which I agree.

I dont know whether 48bit lengths are hardcoded, but 64bit lengths for 
MAC addresses are probably possible in 802.15.7 "Visible Light Comms". 
I noticed this in ISO/CD 22738:2019; that might have been further updated.

Alex
