I think it would be useful for this document to reference
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-mpls-sfc
in the introduction to say that "using MPLS to replace the function of NSH
is described elsewhere [x]".

I think the following:
>>>

the SFF Label will rise to the top of the label stack before
the packet is forwarded to another node and before the packet
is dispatched to a higher layer.

>>>
would be better worded as:

"as a part of normal processing, the SFF Label will become

the top label in the stack before the packet is forwarded

to another node and before the packet is dispatched to a higher layer."


Thanks,
Anoop
