(Hat on.  I just talked to Ted about this and he is in agreement with
this request, but has not seen the text I am about to type ...)

It seems to me that this discussion is really divergent because there is
no applicability statement in the document, per Lars' comment.  I wonder
if you guys could go off and generate such a statement and then we could
re-visit this question.  I think that would factor things into a
question of "where" this is applicable and then how strongly we want to
advocate these mitigations within that context.  Is that reasonable?

Thanks,
allman
