Actually, after rereading R2166 I've changed my mind. It's clear that R2166 does not in any way "define" the assets but leaves that entirely to the backing document. When an entity is defined to be an asset, R2166 invokes some extra legislation, but it does not generally restrict the backing document from defining the nature of the asset in whatever way it sees fit. -root
