Point taken, but see below.

I guess I didn’t express myself clearly. For example, in the case of 
disagreement on KDF ID, since the ITR is going to throw away the Map-Reply 
anyway, it appears as though the Map-Server could return a Map-Reply containing 
LISP-SEC ECM Authentication Data whose EID-AD Length is 4 and simply proposing 
a new KDF ID. That would reuse existing messages without doing throwaway work, 
wouldn’t it?

Thanks,

—John
