Ron, This is the 5th time that we have this discussion in the past five months.
I consider those three questions as closed based on the previous discussion. https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/spring/yRkDJlXd71k0VUqagM3D77vYcFI/ Cheers, Pablo.

The 6man WG, and not SPRING, should answer the first two questions. So I will avoid them an explore the third. At first glance, PSP adds no value. Once Segments Left has been decremented to 0, the Routing header becomes a NOOP. So why bother to remove it? I see the following arguments: 1) To save bandwidth between the penultimate and ultimate segment endpoints. 2) To unburden the ultimate segment endpoint from the task of processing the SRH 3) To unburden the ultimate segment endpoint from the task of removing the SRH The first argument is weak. Routing headers should not be so large that the bandwidth they consume is an issue. The second argument is also weak. Once the ultimate segment endpoint has examined the Segments Left field, it can ignore the SRH. The ultimate segment endpoint must be SRv6-aware, because it must process the SID in the IPv6 destination address field. Given that the ultimate segment endpoint is SRv6 aware, it should be able to process the SRH on the fast path. The third argument is even weaker. The ultimate segment endpoint: - Has to remove the IPv6 tunnel header, anyway - Being closer to the edge, may be less heavily loaded than the penultimate segment endpoint. Can anyone articulate a better justification for PSP? If not, why test the limits of RFC 8200 over it?

I still oppose the segment popping flavours in section 4.16 without updating RFC8200. I would expect that defying Internet Standard 86/RFC8200 means this ID needs to have Experimental rather than Standards Track status.
