I believe how we get around AH issue from a customer endpoint flow is that the customer flow is tunneled, h.encap,  so sits in the payloadend to end customer packet remains unaltered so their is no impact to end to end customer flows if AH is used by any endpoint customer cuz. As far as the outer header H.encap that happens on the SR source or TI-LFA merge point the closer domain intra or inter domain SRv6 comes into play and if the operator tries to use AH instead of ESP the operator that would be broken.  The operator would have to aware to not try to use AH and to use ESP instead.

[AA] Gyan - my problem here is that as you state - the operator would have to be aware - now correct me if I am wrong - but that seems to imply that implementation of this could break existing deployments unless the existing deployments were modified - and I quote from the spring charter

SPRING WG should avoid modification to existing data planes that would make them incompatible with existing deployments.
