Good point! Whereas to me, "limited domain" means, only inside this platform.

"Backwards compatible" may mean different things to different people, and it seem dubious in this case (because flow label is to be a random value, per IPv6). My main view is, if the domain is truly limited, firewalled or even air gapped, then what is the motivation to seek approval in a standards body?
