Hello Kevin,
Thanks for your comments. Please see my inline reply.

Yes, it should have a backward compatibility. We will update document on
backward compatibility section with use cases.

This is optional and it might be turned off by configuration? I think this is
implementation detail but we could have recommendation in draft.

BFD will not replace CFM or TWAMP and it is not equipped to do so. We are
updating the document with use cases and other recommendation please stayed
tuned.
> 4) How would this impact the scale of the BFD protocol?
Do you mean scale impact in steady state?
Thanks
