Done by adding a parenthetical regarding the source of the protocol. (When the
abstract was written, the protocol was part of the same spec, IIRC.)

The very next sentence in the spec answers that already.

I've changed this to not use a term of art but (it talks about surrogates that
are isolated, now), and added a reference to [UNICODE].

The term "with prejudice" is defined at the target of the cross-reference; it
controls what events are fired in certain cases.
