    No, that is not what I said. Please stop twisting my words. I want to steer 
a packet without needing to encapsulate it. Why is that so hard to understand?

    SRH does that using IPv6 addresses, CRH does that using shorter 
identifiers. Both have their use cases. I'm not just talking about SRv6 and 
SRm6. I'm talking about CRH as a building block that can be used by many future 
protocols.

WH> When we defined RFC8663, we could have done what you said, but we didn’t 
and the reason is simple. New networking capabilities we have defined so far, 
are supported naturally, like SFC, OAM, VPN, G-SID/L-SID, etc. With your 
approach we will reinvent the wheel for these things and we have to define a 
new framework to support them. So far nothing has been identified that cannot 
be supported with RFC8663.

RFC8663 is a valid alternative and is available; I am against WG adoption of 
CRH.

    Your arguments don't make any sense...
WH> Make sense to me though.
