You keep asking questions about the purpose of the CANONICALIZE slot,
and I keep trying to explain that purpose.

Perhaps you should tell what does tis mean in practice, from the POV
of populating the CANONICALIZE slot, and how that content would be
used under your proposal. That should make the discussion more
useful, I hope.
