Hi Zafar,
thank you for pointing out the text in Section 7.2. I think that it might
be the right place to illustrate that the defined behaviors indeed are part
of the same data plane. And it can be started with an update of the first
sentence like the following:
OLD TEXT:
   An SR source node MAY compress a segment list when it includes NEXT-
   C-SID or REPLACE-C-SID flavor SIDs.
NEW TEXT:
   An SR source node MAY compress a segment list when it includes NEXT-
   C-SID and/or REPLACE-C-SID flavor SIDs in a single SRH.t
As I understand it, Section 7.2 describes the "or" case. Adding the
description of procedures for the "and" case would help change the proposed
assertion into a conclusion.

Regards,
Greg
