However requiring authorities to put unnecessary data in the

First, as Mark said, sibling glue is sometimes needed.
It is only needed for broken circular dependancies, which we don’t
care about.
Second, the server will most likely not know whether or not the glue
is needed, it will just include it so it does not have to follow the
complicated looping zones to determine if it is needed or not. Since
it
does not know if it is needed or not, it cannot make a smart decision
on whether setting TC=1 is overkill or not. Thus the document saying
"also for sibling glue, just set TC=1 if it does not fit".
Ok that is not what the draft says. It says you must include sibbling
glue, no matter what. Setting TC=1 if you include sibling glue and it
can not
fit it is something different. That probably makes sense for all
referall
where glues don’t fit.
So long
