One postscript to my previous comment. It is NOT ambiguous whether there
is a requirement for composability of equality for Bounded_String in the
RM in the absence of the AI. It is crystal clear that there is no such
requirement!
The AI is not addressing the ambiguity of the requirement, it is adding a
requirement where none existed previously!
