You say that your FEP supersedes the same-origin assumption described in FEP-fe34, but I think it describes a reciprocal claim, also described in FEP-fe34: https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/fe34/fep-fe34.md#reciprocal-claims. I suggest clarifying which aspect of FEP-fe34 is being superseded.
#2 I suppose supercedes is the incorrect term. It extends fe34, in a way. Would that be acceptable? Definitely not meaning to imply that fe34 is insufficient in any way.
#3 :heavy_check_mark: okay

The reason why attributedTo was chosen is because there is prior art to using that property to represent a collection of moderators. You could make the same argument against 1b12 (that moderators should be the key instead of attributedTo), too.
The argument as to whether a custom property fits better is certainly valid, and worth debating. However, I would want to point out that keeping with prior art has the benefit of making this FEP much easier to adopt by threadiverse implementors.

My understanding from a reading of the relevant section from fe34 suggests a claim of A → B is reciprocal if there is an inverse claim B → A.
Yes, and in my understanding these claims are:
- This actor is authorized to delete/update this object.
- This object is hosted on the server where this actor is an administrator.
But I don't insist on importing this concept.

I consider myself a threadiverse implementer too, and I don't really like the idea of dealing with ambiguous properties :)
At the very least, could you add inbox and outbox properties to the Application actor example? https://codeberg.org/devnull/feps/src/branch/instance-admins/fep/baf5/fep-baf5.md#instance-actor-and-application-actor
