The whole reason for the Path Trace is to avoid loops. At face value, this is not a bad idea. But the exception means that really large networks will not have the check. Brilliant. Just where the feature make the most sense, they turn it off. I am hoping that the next editions of 802.1AS and 1588 will remove some of the brain farts and not add too many new ones. One can always hope...
