Re: [sv-bc] 22.10: what is a bind target variation?

I think/suspect that this means that is you have
   module top;
      child c1();
      child c2();
   endmodule
and then use a configuration to change "c2" to, say, "child2" then
the restriction means that you can't have a bind to "child" but
rather would have to bind to "top.c1".

If that is indeed a correct interpretation of the LRM, I don't
think that I like the restriction and don't really see why the
restriction would need to be in the LRM.
