be value in being strict in saying that the EPDP Team can’t use the term “primary.” We’ve reached a common understanding that when we talk about primary, we are talking about the source or applied-for label. It might be helpful to move towards “source” or
“applied-for label” when we move towards drafting. </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l6 level1 lfo11">

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">Response: Looking at the Arabic example in the deck (slide 13) – Looking at B1 and its variants, assuming someone applies for B1, the blocked variants are considered somehow equivalent to B1. Someone from a given
language community who is looking at B1 could consider B3 the same as B1. If you are not comparing block variants in the evaluation, A1 and B1 will proceed to delegation. Someone from the language community that considered B1 and B3 to be the same will look
at A1 and think it is B1, because B1 and B3 are the same. The user could be put in harm’s way because they could click on a link that directs them to somewhere other than B1, which is not what they expected.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo12">

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">Response: This refers to the end user of one or more language community. Whenever two different code points are variants, they are either visually identical or they are considered the same by one of the language communities
using the script. <o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo12">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">Comment: That risk could already be happening and is not unique to IDN labels. A1 and B3 are visually similar, which could cause confusion, but it is not clear that the situation with IDN labels is unique and needs
to be mitigated in a different way.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo12">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">Misconnections happen, but we don’t know if it’s due to phishing or mistyping or something else. This group can’t address that across all TLDs. But it can do something for the case of IDN variants. The small group
took into account both the idea of the consistent user experience and potential risk of harm.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-add-space:auto;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo12">
