Section 4, pg.15 says:

   BTNS is intended for services open to the public but for which   protected associations are desired, and for services that can be   authenticated at higher layers in the protocol stack.  BTNS can also   provide some level of protection for private services when the|  alternative BTNS is no protection at all.

It should say:

   BTNS is intended for services open to the public but for which   protected associations are desired, and for services that can be   authenticated at higher layers in the protocol stack.  BTNS can also   provide some level of protection for private services when the|  alternative to BTNS is no protection at all.              ^^^^
