(1) p 4, sec 4.1. The "offset" Query Parameter

If the "offset" query parameter value supplied is larger than the
number of instances in the list or leaf-list target resource, the
MUST contain error-app-tag with value "offset-out-of-
range".

This reads to me that the offset is checked against the total number of list entries, whereas the base draft seems to suggest that it against the result-set after filtering. Hence, I suspect that this text should be aligned to the base pagination draft.

Align with list pagination base draft on the baseline to be against.

If my understanding is correct, the Result set is only used in the response message to return all the results matched.
while we say the offset is checked against the total number of list entries, I don't think offset is checked against the result set. otherwise, why should we define remaining parameter.
