Arguing from whitespace in a specification seems to me to be a pretty unreliable approach. Can one assume that an infoset can be a duck? :) .... I am not sure how an infoset looks, walks or talks (crucial criteria for Dare seemingly) .... but since the Infoset Rec doesn't have an exclusion clause to specify that it isn't a duck one can assume that it is? :) If the WG intended to say something significant about an/the infoset but failed to say it, then surely a short erratum would be in order?
