Hi,
I don't know if this has been discussed before, but what would be the 
interaction between 9370 and 8784 if they are both used? I know it seems 
unnecessary to use both of them, but it could happen technically, I see 
following options:

  1.  Not allowing this: e.g. if a responder receives USE_PPK and ADDKEx 
transform that is PQC alg in IKE_SA_INIT request, it choose to only use on 
mechanism, e.g. if choose to use 9370, then responder doesn't include USE_PPK 
in response
  2.  Support this, then the question is how would ppk be used?
     *   Used in every key exchange, to derive the SK_d, sk_pi, sk_pr as 
specified in 8784
     *   Used only in last round key exchange
     *   Used only in first round

#1 seems simpler to implement, but is there any security benefit to do #2, like 
ppk used as another level security enhancement?

I know there are IPsec implementations(include mine) already implemented 8784, 
and now in process of implementing 9370 for PQC, I think it will be beneficial 
to have some clarity on this interaction.
