e164 vs. partyNumber aliases

[Callaghan, Robert]

Paul,

The E164 alias, in use, is the user dialed number not a structured E.164
address.  The partyNumber is the structured E.164 or Private Number.

What is the difference between an e164 alias and a partyNumber alias? Was
e164
found lacking, and does partyNumber now supercede it? Are we supposed to
stop
using e164? If not, how do we decide which form to use?
