  That's reasonable.

  The draft explains why that behavior is forbidden.  If you're doing client 
certs without phase 2 authentication, that's just EAP-TLS.  There's no reason 
to have multiple methods of implementing EAP-TLS.  People should just use 
EAP-TLS.

  I see no benefit to using client certificates without phase 2 authentication. 
 Why not just use EAP-TLS?

  I'd like to understand the reasons why someone would use TTLS / PEAP / TEAP 
like that.  Do you have use-cases where this behavior is different from 
EAP-TLS, and better than EAP-TLS?

  Section 3.1 mentions this explicitly:

   However, if the inner identity does contain an NAI realm, the inner
   realm SHOULD be either an exact copy of the outer realm, or be a
   subdomain of the outer realm.  The inner realm SHOULD NOT be from a
   different realm than the outer realm.  There are very few reasons for
   those realms to be different.
