Ignore my mail asking for clarifications; I now see the issue.

I think we should reword the above sentence to say that the identifiers 
are not tightly bound to an interface; to provide communication 
survivability when one interface fails the identifiers must be usable on 
any interface.

(I welcome suggestions for how to make that text shorter.)
