replace "how this info is used" with "why this info needs to be used",
and yeah - I'll claim to be one of them (if you can call me an expert). 

My concerns with the initial doc was that it was skewed towards "get out
of the way of network admins who need to snoop into your private
business to 'help them help you'". I think the current design is a much
better balance and reasonable as a way forward.  In particular, it seems
to say more "if you want that help, then be careful to make the needed
information available at some protocol layer", rather than "leave your
doors unlocked, because we really want to help you and that's the only
way we can".
