I didn't say that ! What I meant was: we take a particular use case (that we
think might be generalizable but we cannot prove it!) and for this particular use
case, we observe what the interoperability problems are ... We come with a
solution and we iterate this process for several (representative?) use cases ...
I could buy the jump to "an interoperability framework" when I will know what
this thing is ... currently it does not exist for me ...

Sorry, typo !
You _should_ have read: "This is unfortunately NOT always our case." :-)))
