No paricular preference for a particular code point other than the fact it has
to be deterministic. We just chose the next available code point in the space
reserved for AuthType.
It's also worth noting that as we were regularly sliding the IANA
considerations back and forth among these drafts (along with the related
YANG modules), explicit numbering helped ensure consistency. Beyond
that, I agree with Mahesh.
