I don't really understand why section 7 is in the document. I assume it has
something to do with the various "interception proxy" traumas that took
place in WREC, but I don't otherwise understand its role. It's clear that
(1) "end-to-end" is assumed to be good, and that
(2) CDNs might somehow threaten "end-to-end", so
(3) an argument is constructed about why this is actually not the case.
But I'm not sure I believe any of 1, 2, or 3, at least as currently
presented.
What harm would befall us if we simply dropped section 7 entirely?
