ยง6.1 on Client authentication* has the following requirement,

"The Principal MUST identify an authorized accessor. If the assertion is
self-issued, the Principal SHOULD be the client_id."

which doesn't really make sense for client authentication.  The
self-issuedness of the assertion should have no bearing on the principal
(rather the issuer) and, when used for client authentication, the principal
should always represent the client.  I believe the bullet should instead
say,

"The Principal SHOULD be the client_id."
