2396bis and the "/" char

Hi:
 
Please excuse this dumb question. But what does the new interpretation of
2396bis which sees all URI schems as being hierarchical and thus reserves ″
/″ across all URI schemes as a hierarchical component delimiter mean for
legacy schemes that used the opague_path production, such as ″data″ below:
