I don't think that this (good!) discussion should affect draft-ietf-tcpm-fastopen. We explicitly decided that the existing TCP fast open spec shall be experimental.

I think this kind of discussion can be sorted out if / once we move fast open to PS. This almost certainly won't happen within quite a number of IETF meetings. Thus, we probably have enough time to fully understand and discuss the interaction with SYN option extension solutions.
