Ahmed,I believe that the so-called protected Adj-SID simply means that if the 
link that it represents fails, it can be replaced with the Node-SID of the node 
at the remote end if the adjacency. It does not help at all if the downstream 
node fails.

I am sure you are aware that ISIS and OSPF adj-SID advertisements 
indicate whether an adj-SID is protected or not. If the ingress router 
decided to use a protected adj-SID for a policy, then the protection of 
such adj-SID is within the policy.
