Jim, I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying.  Can you rephrase
it?

That's a really good question.  I'm not sure what would be the best way
to address this.  What we're saying in this draft is that operational
experience has shown that this part of ND could be problematic in some
circumstances.  Does ND need to be changed as a result?  Probably not.
There are no MUST's surrounding that bit of ND.  As implementors, we're
free to interpret the spec in a sane mannor.  With this draft, we're
pointing out reasons why implementors may want to be careful with that
part of ND.  There is informational value in this alone without having
to muck with the ND spec itself.
