Hi Ron,

Purely looking at technical aspect that is not true at all.

MPLS PHP does not remove label stack. MPLS PHP is just used to pop last
label. After MPLS PHP packets continue with remaining label stack to the
egress LSR (example L3VPN PE).

But I agree with that. Both operations have very little in common from
packet's standpoint or forwarding apect. Well maybe except "penultimate"
word :)

Kind regards,
R.
