This is exactly the same problem space as webfinger, you want to know something 
about a user and there's a useful set of information you might reasonably 
query, but in the end the server may have it's own schema of data it returns.  
There won't be a single schema that fits all use cases, Any given RS/AS 
ecosystem may decide they have custom stuff and omit other stuff.  I think the 
more rigid the MTI schema gets the harder the battle in this case.

Standardized Introspection will be valuable in NAPPS, where the AS and RS may 
be in different policy domains.

Even for single policy domains, there are enterprise scenarios where the RS is 
from a different vendor than the AS, such as when an API gateway validates 
tokens issued by an 'IdP' . We've necessarily defined our own introspection 
endpoint and our gateway partners have implemented it, (at the instruction of 
the customer in question). But of course it's proprietary to us.
