       <ul>
  <li>Parties may mint payment method identifiers to
    represent different conditions. This scalable approach may work
    well for a small number of independent conditions, but
    may not scale well for complex relationships.</li>
- <li>Payment methods may define "filters." Merchants provide
-   filter data as input to the Payment Request API to complement
-   payment method identifier matching.</li>
+ <li>A payment method can define 
+   "filters" that enable callers of the API to describe in
+   finer detail the conditions under which they accept
+   that payment method. User agents and third party
+   payment apps can similarly scope their support for
+   that payment method with these filters. In this
+   scenario, a match between payee and payer depends
+   first on matching payment method identifiers, then on
+   filter alignment. Please note that at this time the
+   Working Group's expectations is that filters will be
+   defined within payment methods; there will not be
+   "generic" filters that work across payment methods.</li>
       </ul>
