COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------


Thanks for the work done in this document.


Special thanks to Antoine Fressancourt, the Internet directorate reviewer (at
my request and on short notice), please consider this int-dir review:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/review-ietf-quic-multipath-19-intdir-telechat-fressancourt-2026-02-04/
 
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/review-ietf-quic-multipath-19-intdir-telechat-fressancourt-2026-02-04/>


In addition to Antoine's review, and in the light of
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iesg-statement-on-clarifying-the-use-of-bcp-14-key-words/
 
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iesg-statement-on-clarifying-the-use-of-bcp-14-key-words/>,
I noted some SHOULD (e.g., sections 2.3, 2.5) that are without the required
guidance per the IESG statement (in short, why not a MUST?).

[MK] The following sentence in 2.3 or in case of 2.5 paragraph actually explain 
why these are SHOULDs. In 2.5 it more explains what happens if you don't follow 
the SHOULD but I think that is still okay because in both cases these things 
are not enforceable and don't break the protocol (therefore no MUSTs) but you 
need to be aware of the consequences.


Let me also expression my surprise (knowing many of the authors) that section
5.2 uses IPv4 only example... On this topic, a dual-stack example would have
been nice (especially, as Wi-Fi is often IPv4-only and 3GPP/cellular is often
IPv6-enable or IPv6-only).

[MK] We discussed this (as it was also flagged by the id-nits) but decided it 
not worth to duplicate the whole examples as this example only works within one 
address family (where you migrate to an existing 4-tuple). I guess the only 
thing we could do it use IPv6 addresses instead. But does that make really a 
big difference?
