[Med] Section 3 is purposely edited "to quickly grasp the essence of" the convert protocol. It focuses on the main design rationale that is use one single SYN to supply data to a converter. That supplied data is unambiguously distinguished by means of TLVs and location within the payload.  

[phil] that's exactly the purpose of a protocol model. The full protocol description is just for people who need to understand the details, implementers etc.
Anyway, I leave you to think about it and edit as you feel best.
