I think that an example is in your hand, a smartphone.
I think that their boot/recovery roms do not process SUIT today, but it would
be possible to generate measurements in EAT format as to what is running
if the measurements are available.

I think that the synnergy makes sense to me.
Just because we describe what is running using SUIT terminology and
constructs does not mean that we have use the entire Manifest.
