Of course not. :-)

What I was getting at was that by default, without any kind of overrides,
the referral mechanism would just blindly copy the same credentials around,
but if you have a situation in which you have different credentials or
differernt TLS options to use for a particular server in the referral chain,
you could override the default method and add logic that dynamically
determines what your credentials and/or tls settings should be.
