This is neither accurate nor correct. The CA/Browser Forum neither
describes nor dictates browser behaviour.

Perhaps you are thinking RFC 6125, but since you've stated this multiple
times, I can only believe this is an honest mistake, but one that deserves
calling out.

btw. SNI explicitly excludes IPv4 and IPv6 address matching that

Could you clarify the relevance of this to the discussion? While it serves
as a useful reminder for those who may have forgotten, I'm at a loss as to
how this has any relevance or impact to the conversation thus far or the
discussion of tradeoffs, so I must be missing something quite basic.
