 Review comment:
   Unlikely to be added with lower numbers tho, but I take your point. You 
don't want to assure anyone about the numbering. I was surprised that Link11 
spec, which i assumed was older than Link16 (11 being less than 16 after all), 
has a data dictionary that starts at DFI 2500 ! So much for sane ordering.
