In Thomas' example
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-munoz-6tisch-examples-00#section-3.6.1
there is a page dispatch to page 1 (0xf1) followed by IPHC (no routing
header). In this case, couldn't one choose to elide the page dispatch
and directly include IPHC? Or is the IPHC different from a page 0
IPHC?
Just checking if we're on the same page (no pun intended ;))

Thanks,
Simon
