My comment about this spec is that you really don’t need a LCAF format to format the addresses. You can use AFI=2 and use IPv6 format. That will reduce the size. But if you start compressing out fields, reality will set in and new features will be added and you’ll be back where we started. You want to multi-home, don’t you?
