-- **No RLP encoder, and no transaction building.** RLP is only needed to
-  construct raw transactions or EIP-7702 authorizations. The client does
-  neither, so the `RSLV` resolver path in this repo stays strictly read-only.
-- **No signing and no stealth addresses.** This change adds key and address
-  derivation only. Signing, the EIP-712 typed-data hashing it requires, and
-  stealth addresses are added with the first code that uses them.
+- **No EIP-7702 authorizations.** RLP is implemented only as far as EIP-1559
+  transactions need it, for registering names; the `RSLV` resolver path in
+  this repo stays strictly read-only.
+- **No stealth addresses and no EIP-712.** Signing covers recoverable ECDSA
+  over a 32-byte digest and EIP-1559 transactions, which name registration
+  requires. EIP-712 typed-data hashing and stealth addresses are added with
+  the first code that uses them.
 - **No BIP-32 public derivation.** We always hold the seed, so CKDpub, xpub
   serialization and fingerprints are not implemented. Non-hardened *private*
   derivation is, because BIP-44 paths end in non-hardened components.
