Do you think we could leave the note regarding registrable domain altogether and let the spec just say "Return the HTTP cache associated with the <var>topLevelOrigin</var>, and optionally <var>origin</var>". In other words, is it ok for the spec to not be specific enough to mention registrable domain detail?

/cc @annevk : Does Firefox plan to use origin or registrable domain?
