I disagree. Again, without other advertisements, the entire domain is at risk
of losing the Area Leader and having an uncomfortable transition.

Hi Tony,
After moving, it seems OK for only the leader advertises a (Updated) Area
Leader Sub-TLV. After the old/current leader dies, a new leader will be elected

Hi Huaimo,
Thank you for your proposal.
The area leader sub-tlv is only advertised by systems that are willing to be
