Ah, I see now what you mean.  Yes, that makes perfect sense.

   In addition to the above, our implementation experience indicates
   that Babel tends to be robust with respect to bugs: more often than
   not, an implementation bug does not violate the properties on which
   Babel relies, and therefore slows down convergence or causes sub-
   optimal routing rather than causing the network to collapse.

I'll work through your remaining points and submit a -08.
