Interesting... that could be the case.
Have we even tried to identify and advertise those architectural principles
since the early days?
It may no longer be achievable, as pressure from vendors for new features and
functionality drives new protocols and protocol additions, and while saying
"no"
sounds good in theory, the reality is that it probably doesn't really prevent
the
efforts, as much as cause them to be done as via private vendor=specific
efforts...
