No, I'm not suggesting that at all. Its authentication strength is greater
than Silver (~LoA-3) but the identity proofing requirements are significantly
less.

The identity proofing requirements are similar to other SaaS applications,
that is, the SaaS app doesn't care that my real name is "Tom Scavo," it gives
access to whomever the IdP says (via a provisioning process of some type).

None that I'm aware of.
