That is correct.

I have been telling you this over and over again and you were choosing not
to accept it.

But please do think about real deployments which do SRH insertion with
encapsulation on ingress to their network for TE or NP reasons. Then the
same customer would like to use TI-LFA to protect data plane.

So per your and few other comments he would not be able to add another
local (to the protection zone) SRH to his already encapsulated on ingress
packet, but would have to add another IPv6 encapsulation with SRH to be in
line with RFC8200 even if the only point of the new SRH is local single dst
detour and protection of arriving dst address in the outer  most IPv6
header.

How efficient/wise that is ?

Thx,
R.
