I find the following unclear and would like to see it spelt out in detail

"traceRouteHopsHopIndex
<snip>
           MUST start at 1 and increase monotonically."

Recent discussions on the ietf main list identified two meanings for
'monotonically' - a sequence where each value is greater than or equal to its
predecessor, or a sequence where each value is strictly greater than its
predecessor - and I am unsure whether this means either or neither.
