The real issue is whether an ECN bit is reserved, or not reserved.
it's not reserved -- the ECN bits are assigned by RFC 3168
i.e. ECN is a proposed standard and the bits that it uses in the IP header

Yes, but if you're a firewall that stepped into a temporal stasis box
before 3168 was published, you're still thinking that the bits are
