    Why don't just perform this check after the capabilities are set?


We don't want to allocate resources for wrong device parameters. We want to error out early. Other checks also are performed at the same place .

It is indeed better to raise an error as early as possible so that we can avoid allocation and other operations that will be reverted and may go wrong due to the invalid condition. That should be the reason why other checks for the address are performed here.

However, in this particular case, we cannot confidently perform the check here because it is unknown if the ARI capability will be advertised until the device realization code runs. This can justify delaying the check after the device realization, unlike the other checks.
