I agree.

The introduction will be largely changed in the next revision.

That is not true. There are many improvements from what we learned from
AODV, and which has been integrated when designing the protocol (see below)

That is exactly what LOADng does (and that will be clearer in the next
revision). It allows for improved flooding (e.g. using SMF/MPR flooding),
it has improved IPv6 support, it is more flexible through the use of
RFC5444, it is simplified as several items from AODV (such as iRREP,
precursor list) have been removed, it is easier to secure using the
security architecture based on RFC5444/RFC6622 and by avoiding iRREPs. We
still need to work in the clearer border gateway specification.

As one (out of many) use cases are LLNs, experience from these deployments
should be integrated. But since the reactive MANET protocol is a MANET
protocol, there will be many other use cases which we also address in the
draft. We have learned from the experience with AODV (and there is plenty,
just Google Scholar for AODV), and I think that many of those learnings are
integrated already in LOADng.
