Thanks for continuing to put work into keeping this updated! There's a few open (non-blocking) things which would be good to include in the proposal, but overall the MSC appears ready to go to FCP.

I expect that the underlying MSCs will also go into FCP quickly, but it's important (to me) that we have a document somewhere which explains why next-gen auth over UIA in particular - an MSC is a great way to do that.

Looks good! I think the motivation section accidentally ends up focusing on the tangential benefits of the change rather than the core rationale of why we're doing this (see the comment)
