I actually do agree with Ran on this. (My head also started
to spin on the same document that you mentioned, but
I take it as an issue in the document, not in the terminology
above...)

Anyway, part of what complicates the terminology
discussion is that some of the proposals employ
addresses whose locator semantics are partial,
e.g., usable as locators only on the edge, not
in the core.
