There have been replied and statement from the WG. E.g. From Dan (network operator) & Jingrong (vendor). https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/spring/ErcErN39RIlzkL5SKNVAeEWpnAI/ My comment is that a statement such as "(1) reduce the load of final destination.", while true in general, is difficult to evaluate, e.g. in term of packet processing gain, or NPU processing resource gain. One can say "not on my hardware", but nobody can say "not in your hardware". And I think that this is along Joel reply (although I would not want to speak for Joel) "Do you have any comments on what appears to be the significant increase in complexity on the device performing PSP? The question I am trying to get at is about the tradeoff, which needs one to evaluate both sides." https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/spring/CMSX7ijacRdG8qHlla61ylJNggo/ So in the end, what we have is the statement "(1) reduce the load of final destination.".
