Hi Tony,
Thank you so much for the responses and changes! All of this sounds great.

Are edges the same as links, in
which case please consider using consistent terms?
In general, edges and links are synonymous in graph theory and routing.
However, in this document, we are making something of a subtle distinction that
is described in section 4.6.
The distinction is relevant when you consider parallel links between nodes.
The flooding topology is computed on edges, which we are defining as a pair of
nodes. This can be instantiated by flooding on a given link. In the case of
PTP links, we do not care that the nodes choose the same link for the edge, as
they are functionally equivalent. However, if broadcast LANs are involved, the
distinction becomes relevant as other nodes will become part of the flooding
topology.
This makes a lot of sense, thank you for the clarification.
Please consider adding a short note about how you are using the term
edge in this case.
Best,
Reese
