Relay agent is functionality that can be provided by a piece of
software. You can run it on any box that is connected to more than one
network. Although typically such a box serves as a router, it doesn't
have to.

Ralph speaks about a generic case (any device that runs relay agent
software) and Leaf thinks about specific one (PE router). Hence the
confusion.
