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.
