The reason you need this nexthop address family is to know
which nexthops are unreachable, no?
So that you can send a path other than the best path, no?

I said non-best.

With add-path, you get the non-best up front, so when
connectivity to the best is broken, you already have the alternative.

Thanks,
Jakob.

With the nexthop address family, when BGP starts,
before the non-best paths will be sent,
 . the RS has to send all the nexthops,
. the client has to set up all the BFD sessions and
. the client has to send all the nexthop reachability info back to the RS.

If you read the draft carefully you'll see this is not the case. Unreported nexthops are specified as having implicit state "unknown" which is eligible for selection.
