Thanks Luc. Would it be possible to add a line in section 4 along the lines of:
"While the various algorithms for DF election are discussed in Sections 4.2-4.4, unlike all-active load balancing, the choice of algorithm in this solution doesn't impact performance in any way since there is only one active link."
