Hi All,

Do we know what breaks if we allow P=1 and F=1 in same packet ?

This is disallowed because the spec says to send a packet with F=1 immediately upon receipt of a Poll.  This requirement (trivial to implement) bounds the packet transmission rate, and provides additional protection against runaway packet transmission in the case of a broken implementation.
