I realise that the term "network protocol" is necessarily vague, but I wonder if it might be possible to avoid some confusion with the likes of NetBEUI (if that's still around) with a phrasing something like: When transmitted as the syntax of a network protocol, or as a payload of a network protocol intended to be interpreted as part of a protocol, JSON text MUST be encoded in UTF-8 (Section 3 of [UNICODE]).
