Diffing the OIDC vs RFC 8414 bodies: **they differ, and not as a superset**. Fields present ONLY in the OIDC document: `jwks_uri`, `userinfo_endpoint`, `id_token_signing_alg_values_supported`, `id_token_encryption_alg_values_supported`, `id_token_encryption_enc_values_supported` (Okta's RFC 8414 document drops every OIDC-ID-token-specific field, which is arguably more RFC-8414-correct than including them). Fields present ONLY in the RFC 8414 document: `identity_chaining_requested_token_types_supported` (an Okta-specific token-exchange capability flag). This is a fourth, distinct pattern: a genuine **subset-plus-vendor-field**, as opposed to Google's swap, GitLab's pure superset, and Keycloak/Auth0's identical-document behavior. **Observed (five live customer subdomains):** `pagerduty.okta.com`, `atlassian.okta.com`, and `zoom.okta.com` all answered HTTP 200 with their own real discovery documents (real companies' Okta OIDC discovery is, by the spec's own design, meant to be public — no credential was sent or needed). `developer.okta.com` is HTTP 404 (that hostname is Okta's developer-portal website, not a tenant). **`trial-9999999.okta.com`** — a syntactically valid but almost certainly unassigned trial-org name — answered HTTP 403 with Okta's own app-level JSON error shape (`{"errorCode":"E0000006","errorSummary":"You do not have permission to perform the requested action",...}`), **not** a DNS failure or a generic edge 404: the `*.okta.com` wildcard terminates TLS and routes to the Okta application for any syntactically plausible org subdomain, even one that does not (or no longer) exists, and the app itself returns a permission-denied shape rather than a not-found one.
