Laudable, and completely unrelated to the hijacking.
(Not on critical path, anyway.)

Don’t do that.

The flow label is not ROLL’s, so there is nothing to do here.

ROLL has waited long enough for consensus to build in 6man around the flow label hijacking.
Not happening.

I think we are converging quickly here.

Summary:

I’m calling for all involved to stop muddying the water with the dead flow label hijacking proposal.
It is a distraction from the consensus that is being built around a 6lo solution, and it will never fly.
