I've raised this as an issue and I'll propose some text when I've cleared my backlog. Hopefully, we'll have time to discuss this before the cutoff, so the draft can reflect consensus.

> Section 3.1.1 of held-identity says:
> > Subjective views of the network mean that the identifier a requests
> > uses to refer to one physical entity could actually apply to a
> > different physical entity when used in a different network context.
> > Unless an authorized third party requester and LIS operate in the
> > same network context, each could have a different subjective view of
> > the meaning of the identifier.
> > In this case, the third party receives information that is correct
> > only within the network context of the LIS. The location information
> > provided by the LIS is probably misleading: the requester believes
> > that the information relates to a different entity than it was
> > generated for.
> This notes the potential for misleading location information, but does
> not explain that subjective views also create the potential for the
> LIS to apply the wrong policy to a given location request. It's sort
> of implied, but I think it's worth stating explicitly, because it
> creates a problem of equal concern if the LIS doesn't realize it's
> dealing with a subjective view.
