We can disagree then - I have included both references. Note that in any case, 
someone really want to dig into the contents of an OSPFv3 LSDB would need to 
reference both RFCs if they were not very familiar with OSPFv3 and the extended 
encodings.

Yes - since it was not that verbose. I included the complete description in the 
description.

We have a separate model for these OSPFv3 segment routing extensions. However, 
since the AC-bit is not unique to segment routing, I could just as well include 
it here. We’ll see if I get any more IETF Last Call comments.
