Ignore my mail asking for clarifications; I now see the issue.
I think we should reword the above sentence to say that the identifiers
are not tightly bound to an interface; to provide communication
survivability when one interface fails the identifiers must be usable on
any interface.
(I welcome suggestions for how to make that text shorter.)
