What are the other effects of "hard reset"? Are they ALL transport 
protocol-dependent?

This may need to be softened so that it is PERMISSIBLE, but not mandatory, 
for TARGET RESET to cause a "hard reset". For example, one of the causes of 
"hard reset" in SBP-2 is TARGET RESET. Is the intent to render SBP-2 
noncompliant with SAM-2?
