Yes, but the message type is irrelevant. Marcin's point was that
the draft says that that server will never send a message that is not a
response to a message from a relay, which is not true.

Note that the draft says nothing about message types. Here's part of the
text that needs to be updated in my opinion: "A standards-compliant DHCP
server will never send a message to the a relay other than in response
to a message from a relay,...".
