Is that > what you are arguing? Disagree here. Where multiple solutions exist, then interoperability costs more. Ask anyone implementing ... well anything with IP in it, say, and currently, they will be expected to have both IPv4 and IPv6, a dual stack in some sense of the word, and the cost of this ripples up the stack to whereever IP addresses cease to be visible, which is a long way up. Ditto SNMP where there are three different flavours that a stack will support, in many if not most cases. And so on and so forth. So having two different packet formats for the same OAM function is a pain and will cost; but as long as the protocols are properly defined, as I believe they are here, then the coexistence will have a cost but will not stop interoperability, in the same way as we have IPv6 and IPv4 and a lot of associated options, dual stack, gateway, encapsulation ......
