A few points/comments,

- IMHO, your request seems more related to the problem statement draft. 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-rtgwg-spf-uloop-pb-statement-03 If you 
could comment the draft in order to improve it, this would probably speed up 
the discussion.
- You are right that the IGP fast convergence, following a single failure, is 
mostly due to the time needed to update the FIB on line cards. However, as the 
SPF back-off algo kicks in, this is changing, and differences in spf delay algo 
brings a significant delta. cf slide 6 of the slides presented in IETF 90 
https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/90/slides/slides-90-rtgwg-2.pdf  You may also 
review the whole presentation; not because you would learn anything, but may be 
to ease the identification of the parts where we may have a different opinion. 
(at this point, I'm not seeing real disagreement).
- Do we agree that having different SPF delay algo across one network, is not a 
feature but a bug? IOW, there is value in standardizing one. 

Regards,
--Bruno
