Comment type: E
Priority: 1
Section: 7.1
Rationale/Explanation of issue:

In section 7.1, the word "adversary" and "attacker" are both used to talk about 
the same kind of person. It is the only place in the draft where "adversary" is 
used, every where else the word "attacker" is used. 

Also all issues are "[attacker|adversary] may" but number 4 is a "might" 
(offline attacks). Does it really seem less likely than other attacks?

Suggested Change:
Unless the above is a subtlety beyond my grasping of the English language:
s/adversary/attacker/
s/might/may/ in issue 4
