I'm going to guess here - do you mean the issue of how large the
response should be?

There is text in the draft on _how_ to reduce the size of the response.

3261 does not provide guidance clear guidance on response size limits.
It _does_ say that all implementations MUST be able to handle messages
up to the maximum UDP packet size, which can probably handle even 70 hop
messages.  If you think that SIP needs better definition of _when_ to
limit response sizes and _what_ size they should be limited to, then I
think that's an interesting discussion, but it's a bigger question than
this error response and a problem that already exists whether this draft
is accepted or not.
