Probably for the first time on the subject of our failed attempt to hold ICANN accountable to Human Rights standards, I agree with Thomas. Not only is there 'no real difference', there is simply no difference. In the phrase "Unless and until" the phrase "unless and" is entirely otiose and simply an example of the all-too-common, unnecessary and habitual use of rhetorical adnominatio by legal draughtsmen.

Hi Niels, we had been advised by our law firms that there is no real legal difference between the two alternatives, which is why the comment has not made its way into the final version of the CCWG comment if memory does not fail me. If you still think this needs fixing, please do submit a comment to bring it to the attention of the drafting teams.
Thanks, Thomas

Dear Mathieu,
Thanks for this. There is an issue related to the Human Rights bylaw, which we have discussed and on which I think we reach agreement that has not been addressed in the CCWG public comment. Namely the comment made by Seth underneath, the exclusion of the text "unless and", about which I thought we reached consensus.
Since the CCWG comments have already been submitted, how would you advice to proceed on this matter?
Best,
Niels

Note for all: This does not address the inclusion of "unless and" in Section 27.3 (a), which makes the FOI on HR conditional and does not reflect the CCWG Report which only says the Core Value is not in force "until" the FOI is developed. Already said this, with some support. Repeating for reference once again.
