I don’t see a benefit of limiting the grant type to code. Why not using CIBA or device as well? I basically think an endpoints design should never depend on the type of OAuth/OIDC flow used to obtain (access) tokens.

The current text goes:

Successful and Error Authentication Response are in the same manner

as [OpenID Connect Core 1.0](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html)

with the `code` parameter always being returned with the Authorization Code Flow. ** DISCUSS **

    On 2021-08-24 call, it was pointed out that if we were to expand it, specifics need to be defined as well, such as a constrained set of parameters etc. for interoperability and associated security considerations.

    Since it is in the setup phase, it happens only once (sort of) per IA. Is there a concrete need for other flows?
