Inclusion of the mitigation references is definitely valuable. I agree with Magnus that this draft is not a “Problem Statement” draft, and suggest that those two words in the title be replaced – e.g., perhaps the draft title could be “Dynamic Networks to Hybrid Cloud DCs: Considerations and Mitigation Practices” accompanied by appropriate rephrasing in the draft itself.
The minor MTU and ECN concerns raised in my earlier TSV-ART review have been sufficiently addressed in the current version of this draft.

As an informational document it does not prescribe any of the mitigations as that would be inappropriate for the document.
