Not exactly well-defined.
An analysis produced in 2009 conspicuously failed to actually list all the points that were considered problematic and that needed to be addressed - other than it did give prominence to the need to prevent Iran from being able to deploy a nuclear deterrent. OK for me but not for thee!
It then went on to investigate a number of different approaches that might be employed to bring Iran into line with expectations ... but what were the expectations?
Other than the nuclear weapons "issue" (at that time far from imminent), undefined!
But of course there were other reasons ....
