I'm lost here.

Again:

* draft-ietf-spring-srv6-network-programming has a normative reference
to draft-voyer-6man-extension-header-insertion

* draft-voyer-6man-extension-header-insertion is about EH insertion

* EH insertion is forbidden by RFC8200


We have wasted way too much time and energy with all the methafores and
curious interpretations of standards by folks pushing and/or supporting
EH insertion, really.
