Is that actually true? The DPoP spec itself is a case in point: it reuses the 
existing OIDC “nonce” claim but explicitly says that DPoP nonces are not like 
OIDC nonces (section 9):

“ Developers should also take care to not
   confuse DPoP nonces with the OpenID Connect [OpenID.Core] ID Token
   nonce.”

The official IANA registration of “nonce” says:

Value used to associate a Client session with an ID Token

Does this matter? If not, does it matter if some other spec defines a “htm” 
claim with different meaning?
