My point was rather the opposite: the negotiation pattern keeps the same
two roles (for example buyer and seller) but flip-flops the requesting and
responding activities between the two roles in successive transactions,
first the buyer performing the requesting activity in an "Offer"
transaction, then the seller performing the requesting activity in a
"Counteroffer" transaction.

I hope it would also be possible that "CounterOffer" can come from the same
role that has sent "Offer" "referencedByCounterOffer".
