No, that is attempting to define away other kinds of referrals, which
is precisely the discussion we were previously having (and why Joe and
I wrote that other draft).  The terminology draft should not, in my
opinion, attempt to change any RFC; and, IMO, 1034 defines referrals
in such a way that someone _could_ think that upward referrals are
sometimes a normal part of operation.  If we want to change the advice
of what to do there, I think a different document is needed.

Best regards,
