"5.6.  Forwarding the overload control parameters

    Overload control is defined in a hop-by-hop manner.  Therefore,
    forwarding the contents of the overload control parameters is
    generally NOT RECOMMENDED and should only be performed if permitted
    by the configuration of SIP servers.  This means that a SIP proxy
    SHOULD strip the overload control parameters inserted by the client
    before proxying the request further downstream."

I think the reader should be reminded at this point that the proxy also
behaves as a client, so will immediately re-insert its own "oc" parameters.
(In fact it would be very odd if the proxy supported overload control
upstream but not downstream.)  Vijay suggested: I can insert the following
sentence as the last sentence of the lone paragraph in S5.6:

    "Of course, the proxy can add overload control parameters pertinent
     to itself in the Via header it inserts in the request going
     downstream."

This would be fine.

Brian: Thank you for the review.  I have added the above sentence.

I will close the loop and ping you when I release -15 after the
quarantine period.

Cheers,
