No, it's not really Pythonesque but negotiation is allowed to fail.

There's already a thing called an HNCP agent. Why couldn't
it be enhanced to negotiate with an upstream ASA for resources?

No disagreement; the idea was simply to ensure that the GRASP objective
can communicate that PD is or isn't available. If PD is required in
a particular scenario then that parameter will always be set True.

Yes, I see that. (Unless of course we get into much more complex validation
and authorization stuff, which seems unlikely to fly.)
