Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: "Derivative predicate" of W3C VC WG and "Expression Language" of OIDF ekyc-ida WG

Hey Dan, just some initial thoughts here after a brief review of the spec.

In the following example, it seems that the spec allows for certain semantic/industry-specific comparison using the "gt" operator on strings, which would be not possible in JSON Schema:
https://gruposantander.github.io/digital-trust-docs/assertions/claim-assertions-00.html#name-example

It's pretty common in the financial sector to represent currencies as strings as prevent unintentional IEEE 754 mantissa-bending from getting settlements wrong and sending everyone to jail. There is also a capabilities negotiation section with "assertion_claims_query_language_supported" that may benefit from universal identifiers like "https://schema.bigbankstandards.com/operators/gt". These semantics might be different enough to target a goal other than recreating JSON Schema.

>> OIDF's current proposal is outlined here <https://gruposantander.github..io/digital-trust-docs/assertions/claim-assertions-00.html>. For example for the alcohol purchase age, in the US it is ageOver18, but in Japan it is ageOver20. The concept of expression language would allow to express this as {"age" : { "gt" : "18", "lt" : "20" } } where gt is 'greater than' and 'lt' is less than..
