Hi Toerless, Thank you very much for your response! I have one more question, let we consider CGM2/RBS solution only. Since all the bits have local significance in CGM2/RBS, what if we want to send one flow to multiple BFERs but we don't want to indicate any path? In this case we can't reach the BFERs because we don't put any path bits in the BitString and there is no global BIFT in the intermediate nodes, right?

That is one core difference, yes. And it eliminates IMHO all the scaling challenges we have with BIER-TE (that we try to compensate for to some degree with controller based bit optimizations). But as discussed in the answer to Jeffs message, the fact that the encoding in CGM2/RBS is a tree means that we also eliminate the BIER/BIER-TE issue that a bitstring can carry a lot of unnecessary (zero) bits and need to make multiple copies just because some BFER or adjacencies have their bits in different SI (in larger topologies).
