A whole session at the IETF meeting in Singapore was spent on the topic of header insertion in general and in the context of SR.
Progress was made.
I would encourage you to review that session.
Video recording is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJU0m1EhjaI

My reading of the working group session was to proceed work on both drafts. With neither draft updating RFC8200.

Let's focus on communicating and understanding the positions of each "camp" and proceed with the technical arguments.
I would discouarge "process arguments".
If you believe those are necessary, please take those with the chairs and AD and we can summarize to the group.

Best regards,
Ole
