As for initial value of dynamic table size, I think it is 4KiB regardless of SETTINGS. We create HTTP/2 session before doing any parameter modification, including header table size change. At this moment, table size if 4KiB, RFC default. After that, decoder send SETTINGS_HEADER_TABLE_SIZE with whatever value they want. Then after SETTINGS ACK, and HPACK table size update, dynamic table size is finally synchronized, and changed to the value encoder sent in HPACK table size update (as long as it is equal or smaller than decoder sent in SETTINGS).
