Just want to chime in on the primary context of PUA/Pulse design is to
provide protection of the underlay egress PE next hops host routes that are
summarized to provide an egress PE protection mechanism similar to RFC 8679
but focused on IGP to track the component prefixes of the summary route as
the protection mechanism.

So the use case for PUA/Pulse is honed in on being able to eliminate domain
wide flooding and make summarization viable and still have FRR style fast
protection of next hops so that the overlay service routes have minimal to
none disruption.  The problem with the summarization is the component
prefixes need to be tracked to provide that feedback mechanism that the
component is dead so the control plane can converge instantly just as it’s
able to converge instantly with domain wide flooding of LPM routes which
can take advantage of existing local protection mechanisms LFA/RLFA/TI-LFA.

Kind Regards
