If this has no impact on ANCP, then the current text should be just fine. The current text:
* (i) describes that there is another model for CAC ie PS-->AN or PS-->NAS-->AN, 
* (ii) clarifies that it does not require ANCP extensions (and thus is outside scope for ANCP). 
Your description above seems to be in line with the text as it is today (which is fine by me too).

I think some have different ideas about how ANCP could play a role in the PS-->AN and PS-->NAS-->AN and therefore involve some specific ANCP extensions.
I recommend we do not try rush those in the first deliverables of ANCP WG. Once these additional models are understood and agreed, they can be added to the next version of ANCP deliverables.

Cheers

Francois
