However, a new special-purpose prefix is rather trivial to deploy compared with a new Ethertype.

Additionally, yes, lots encaps (not encodings) carrying SRv6 should get new codepoints if we are really serious about trusted domains here.

The solution (using a new EtherType, SRv6-ET) is a good one.  It’s sad that this wasn’t done from the get-go, as the solution is a bit “evil bit”-ish.  I’d prefer to see ALL SRv6 packets (i.e., those containing SRH) use SRv6-ET.  Boundary routers SHOULD drop packets with SRv6-ET that cross the boundary in either direction; all routers MUST drop packets with SRH that don’t have SRv6-ET. Yeah, difficult, but the added security is worth it.
