is this term well-defined and understood? I think I know what it means but for example, can I take a ToIP Identity that was defined on an iOS Phone and move it to a Google Android phone or a Linux desktop? I think the intent to this statement is 'yes' but some might think that portable just means between a phone and a cloud of the same vendor that defined the identifier.

Example: passkeys that can't be shared across OS vendor ecosystems.

+1 to the question. I also agree with Allan's definition, but would add a second one as well. "Fully portable" implies that the identifier can be moved to different infrastructure (e.g., a different blockchain, or no blockchain at all).
