Hi,

This is the new text in question:
It appears your intent is (c) since there is no mention at all what happens
if
<persist> was included.  The text just says what does not happen in this

How about adding at the end:

OLD:

element.

NEW:

element, in which case the server MAY continue the confirmed commit
procedure.
