As I'm glancing through the ebit draft, it occurs to me that the changes to
RFC 9515 have a potentially perverse interaction with it: All new FCFS
fields are now required to use the ebit.

This would include the experimental ranges.

I had noted a prior set of emails last year from Ahmed when this bit of
interaction occurred to me.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing.  But it does have the interesting
property that if grow doesn't want some vendor's PEN stuck in something
forever for a feature that might be popular, it means that "early adoption"
from the standards point becomes almost a required thing.

The WG should ponder if this is a set of properties it's really wanting and,
if so, the ebit document should call it out explicitly as an interaciton
with RFC 9515.
