     <li>it's impossible to be subscribed to a person's feed if the person is not subscribed to you because in this case his server doesn't know your presence information and your capabilities and hence it can't filter the messages appropriately, so you won't receive any notifications at all;</li>
     <li>servers need to know not only their users' capabilities but also the capabilities of all the users that it wants to communicate;</li>
-    <li>we can't reduce amount of S2S traffic by sending one notification for each server, we need to send as much notifications as much users are subscribed on it;</li>
     <li>clients can't decide what kind of notifications they want to receive; node owner decides instead, but clients might not be interested in some of notifications or vice versa.</li>
   </ul>
   <p>The most actual example of the problems that are beget with these disadvantages is the &xep0277;: you won't be able to subscribe to a user's blog if he doesn't want to read your blog as well. This will be a big problem for popular bloggers that can't read all the feeds of their readers.</p>
+  <p>Another one is a bot which want to gather information from a lot of users. For instance, we can want to write a bot which gather geo-location from a lot of devices, then it will subscribe to these devices but they may not want to do so. The new protocol will allow such bots to operate this way.</p>
+  <p>Also, some clients may want to receive retract items events to appropriately update their feed data storage but some other clients may not want to store feeds at all and just show the recent events and corollary don't need in these events. This standard allows the first one to receive those events and the last one to get rid of them saving traffic, regardless of node settings which can be configured solely by the node's owner.</p>
