Agreed that a platform needs consistency with respect to the cross cutting concerns of the platform, and what those concerns are should be called out in the various profile level specs.

I disagree with bundling things into a deployment. Personally I am in favour of managed runtimes and thin wars. I know many people do like self assembly of their runtime mixed into their application however I don’t feel that is ultimately the best direction for Jakarta EE.

 

Similarly I think the APIs should be consistent across the whole of Jakarta EE. Cross cutting concerns like security should be implemented once and all other specs should depend on that api. Personally I’m not in favour of specs striving to be standalone if it detriments platform consistency.
