Hi Ron, Thanks for that clarification.
I note that you are not anymore saying "Are not interested in SR" like you had mentioned before the WG adoption call : https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ipv6/LheyFD_uwuHp7tiG8Y1CwKngDYI/ So, would it be fair to say that the operator that you are referring to below, wishes to deploy a Traffic Engineering solution using a subset of Segment Routing (i.e. a reduced portion of Spring Architecture) that only supports prefix and adjacency SIDs as indicated by the two "forwarding methods" that are referred to in draft-bonica-6man-comp-rtg-hdr?

These operators want a compact routing header, nothing more.

I am trying to understand from the authors what would be the applicability of that solution, it's use-cases and it's requirements. That is what, I believe, will help us evaluate the CRH proposal in the context of this working call. That will help us answer these questions like the scope of the SID, 32-bit or 16-bit or something else and what the CRH-FIB is going to turn out like.
