Authors,

Apologies for being late with this comment in the process of standardization.

The below section 5 describes the PHP for mapping server


" As the Mapping Server does not specify the originator of a prefix
    advertisement, it is not possible to determine PHP behavior solely
    based on the Mapping Server advertisement.  However, PHP behavior
    SHOULD be done in following cases:

       The Prefix is intra-area type and the downstream neighbor is the
       originator of the prefix.

       The Prefix is inter-area type and downstream neighbor is an ABR,
       which is advertising prefix reachability and is also generating
       the Extended Prefix TLV with the A-flag set for this prefix as
       described in section 2.1 of [RFC7684]."


The text says "PHP behavior" should be done in following cases.
In the second case here it's an ABR re-advertising a prefix and SID being 
advertised for this
Prefix from a mapping server. If we interpret "PHP behavior should be done"
As the penultimate router removing the label and forwarding the packet to ABR,
It does not work since the inner labels gets exposed at the ABR.

above texts clearly specifies that PHP is done only for case where ABR is originating a prefix, not propagating it from other area. You can distinguish between the two based on the A-flag in the Extended Prefix TLV as specified in RFC7684, which the above text mentions.

thanks,
Peter

Request authors to add clarification text around "PHP behavior".

Abstract:
    Segment Routing (SR) allows a flexible definition of end-to-end paths
    within IGP topologies by encoding paths as sequences of topological
    sub-paths, called "segments".  These segments are advertised by the
    link-state routing protocols (IS-IS and OSPF).

    This draft describes the OSPF extensions required for Segment
    Routing.
