Schema notes
The canonical MSP-1 v1.0.1 form for authority is an object with name and type as required fields.
A stable id and clear scope are strongly recommended. The id field is not required to be a URI. Authority is scope-bound and should not be treated as proof of correctness, trust, verification, or ranking priority by itself.
