In https://w3c-ccg.github.io/did-spec/#uris-urls-and-urns, it states...

DIDs have a foundation in URLs, so it's important to understand...

This is interesting history but the wording of this sentenceis confuding. It leads the reader to believe that DIDs are URLs. See #155

Yes. DIDs are URLs. See my other comments.

Please don't close this. This specific issue documents specific wording in the DID spec that needs to be changed. It's related to #155 but different.
