I'm not sure if the spec is redundant because of token exchange. Token
exchange aims a different use case and this stuff is just about incremental
authorization and granting scopes on demand. AFAIK, there is no change of
audience as it is all about an existing session (in case of public clients
+ refresh token) or previously granted scopes (in case of confidential
clients + client credentials).

Yeah, it is interesting. I think they are using a refresh token in order to
make sure client is obtaining tokens within the same session.
