layer 8

c.f. the OSI (7 layer) reference model (physical, link, network, transport, session, presentation, application). "Layer 8" refers to variably the "political", "management", "lawyer", "business", or "money" layer, or some other element the speaker wishes to be denigrate as being technically irrelevant and therefore stupid. Nearly always followed by the word "issues" or "problem".
Not only was the ISO protocol stack technically over-engineered, it became far too embroiled in Layer 8 issues to ever become useful.

Yes, some of our Exchange users need IMAP, but some moron in the security group thinks it isn't "secure". It's a Layer 8 problem.
