If you are suggesting to have only stateful mode with always carrying
EAP message (and no cookie), then an attacker that intercept PSR can
blindly send PSA without even parsing PSR, which is not good.

If you are suggesting to have only stateless mode with always carrying
cookie and EAP message, then a remaining issue would be that PAA needs
to retransmit EAP Request while it has sent a cookie, which does not
make sense to me.
