It was a non-blocking comment, and from the perspective of how the document is written I guess it is not at all necessary to do any changes. From my perspective it is a relevant observation that although multipath is not a solution for the multihoming a network, multihoming with provider addresses is a benefit to multihoming protocols. Which indicates that if this should be added it is likely in the introduction section or not at all. Your call.
