I think that bmwg should always treat the tested entity as a single device;
we are not in the business of trying to develop methods for discerning which
components in the box are the source of performance bottlenecks.  That's a
useful (network equipment vendor) goal, but all that matters is the overall
performance and that should always be our focus.

One approach is its-a-box, undifferentiated. Another is that its a
collection
of design points, which can be expressed behaviorally, via load and other
triggers.

Oops. Just saw Fred's note, to the same point. ^D
