Hi, I wouldn't object to any solution. - What Dhruv suggests - Just 32 bits and define a new TLV if more bits are ever needed

I can think of one case: PCE capability flags in [1], where we defined it as an array of units of 32-bit flags numbered from the most significant as bit zero, where each bit represents one flag. In the corresponding IANA registry [2], we maintained it as 32 bits for now, which can be easily updated by a future document when needed. As a WG contributor, I think it is better to be future proof even though 32 bits seems good enough at the present. Thanks!
