HNCP doesn't fragment multicast, it only uses fragmentation for (link-local)
unicast.  This is way less severe than what you incorrectly claim.

At any rate, the right time to discuss that was 2015, not now.  HNCP is
a standards track protocol, and there's nobody left who's willing and
competent to work on a new revision.
