I guess https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8446#section-7.1 does not cover this very well either, but the '|' notation is just shorthand for "there are multiple outputs, produced by using the different values as this input field". It's not concatenation, just a different output corresponding to the different case of protocol operation. Suggestions for how to clarify that would, of course, be most welcome! Thanks, Ben
