The paragraph above figure 15 in section 6 (and figure 15 as well) describes an endpoint as having zero or more hardware components and zero or more software components, where each may have zero or more running instances.
```
...the make up of an Endpoint asset which contains zero or more hardware components and zero or more software components each of which may have zero or more instances running...
```
This feels incorrect, because it defines an endpoint as being capable of having neither hardware nor software, but (as mentioned elsewhere in the draft) is network addressable. Is it possible to have an endpoint without hardware and without software? Even if academically so, what place does it have in our information model?
