defining an OID for a scalar Instance



The IPSEC-SPD-MIB has this:

   spdTrueFilter OBJECT-TYPE
           SYNTAX      Integer32
           MAX-ACCESS  read-only
           STATUS      current
           DESCRIPTION
               "This scalar indicates a (automatic) true result for
                a filter.  I.e. this is a filter that is always
                true, useful for adding as a default filter for a
                default action or a set of actions."
           ::= { spdStaticFilters 1 }

   spdTrueFilterInstance OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { spdTrueFilter 0 }

And SMICng says that this is an ERROR:
    E: f(ipsec-spd.mi2), (951,4) Item "spdTrueFilter" must not have items registered
    below it

We (MIB experts) have also used it in the DISMAN event MIB:

    sysUpTimeInstance OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { sysUpTime 0 }

So do we agree to call the ERROR msg from SMICng a FALSE msg?
