Instead of a periodic POST request to the Thing, the Consumer may provide response data with information when the next POST request should be provided by the Thing. This is described by using the dataResponse field.

This note doesn't reference anything in the example above and no context is given. I think the note should be removed or moved to a section that describes this potential use cases of dataResponse.

Generally, I'm more in favour of removing this note because it suggests to use dataResponse for a directive to the Thing.
The consumer doesn't

  • have another way of setting this and
  • doesn't have a back channel know if the Thing successfully processed this request.

Is this meant for the Consumer to gently ask the Thing to rate-limit outgoing events on this webhook?
