Re: [OAUTH-WG] Use cases for Audience Restricted tokens + AS and RS "discovery"

The "a. wrong AS /token endpoint" is the mix-up issue, which can be
mitigated by returning an identifier for the AS in the authorization
response. It is something that needs to be addressed but "discovery" or
metadata aren't needed and audience restricted access tokens tokens don't
help.

Maybe that's obvious but there seems to be a lot of confusion on all this
so I wanted to reiterate it.
