How do you address them?
For the DA field in DEFSLVS frame, the spec says: "shall contain the
current value of the Slave's assigned 7-bit Dynamic address". If the
device doesn't have the dynamic address assigned yet why send it?

I would like to understand what is the use case for this?

On I3C spec table "I3C Devices Roles vs Responsibilities", Secondary
Master is not responsible to do Dynamic Address Assignment but it is
optional to do Hot-Join Dynamic Address Assignment.

I would say the reason behind is regarding how to distinguish i2c from
i3c devices.
