Hello Dhananjaya,

Thanks a lot for your clarification, and references! I'm glad to know that
the described case is going to be fully covered by the document. I've
recently read both of the referred documents (a previous problem statement
draft, and the SR-TE one), and it seems to me that an explanation in the
SR-TE is more explicit and clear. If it's possible to preserve this style
(maybe in a different way) for Section 6.2 it will be really helpful.

Hope it helps.
