You seem to be arguing that packages themselves may need to have option

That is not my intent. I'm talking about the use of option tags to say "Yes, I support the concept of info-packages" vs "I do not support the concept of info-packages".

What I asked was whether there was a need to have an option tag
specifically for the info-package extension.

yes, and that's what I tied to answer.

There were no option tags for pre package info behaviour, so there is no information to tell you that if I don't support the new extension that I supported the previous incarnation of INFO. So I do not see how that can
be used for fallback.

If I don't support info-packages, then I MIGHT support old-info. If I do, then I MIGHT understand an INFO (or the legacy set), and I MIGHT send you one (from the legacy set). But I'm very, very unlikely to understand any of the new CID-indirection-to-select-a-body, multiple- body stuff, so don't send it!
