Well I am reading this email because I have a laptop that supports a
bunch of RFCs, and  bunch of email standards. 

So I guess we disagree on benefits vs costs. And again if the root does
not send OCP0, the game boy having OCP0 is useless. Are we trying to
solve an adhoc network problem? Do the requirements drafts and RFCs
require this kind of scenario?

Best,
Julien
