    Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for your message.

    The PCECC capability comes into play only when PCE also controls the
    label space and it is the PCECC that is allocating the label
    completely on its own.

    The other case is for PCE to pick a specific value for BSID and ask
    for the PCC to allocate and that does not require PCECC capability, it
    remains distinct as noted in section 4.

       If a PCE requires a PCC to allocate a specific binding value, it may
       do so by sending a PCUpd or PCInitiate message containing a TE-PATH-
       BINDING TLV.  If the value can be successfully allocated, the PCC
       reports the binding value to the PCE.

    I can tighten up the text in section 7 to make it clearer and avoid
    any confusion.

    Thanks!
    Dhruv (as a WG participant)

document, however I have some concerns regarding some of the text that requires 
PCECC capability exchange in order to allocate the value and erroring otherwise 
for a PCE-INIT. While the binding SID document is independent of SR Policy, one 
of its key usage is for SR Policy Candidate path. If a user wants to manually 
program an SR Policy CP and define a specific BSID and deploy it via PCEP 
PCE-INIT, I do not think there should be a requirement on PCECC capabilities to 
do so. While PCEP is not BGP of course, I can manually configure an SR Policy 
Candidate path with a BSID and inject with BGP without any pre-negotiations. 
This applies to Replication Segment as well. The BSID needs to be valid in 
SRLB, not necessarily a valid CCI related value?
