We already had an extensive discussion on this topic, including a consensus
call,
and I don't believe that this matches the conclusion of this call.

Substantively, I am in favor of making a general requirement against reuse
for TLS 1.3, but I don't think that having such a requirement in specific
cipher suites is good.

Thanks,
