well, *better security* might be an inaccurate expresssion. i suppose MAP
provides better flexibility than 4rd-U. personally, i understand the reason
of 4rd-U requiring fixed offset (4bits) is to support the longest-match of
port for CE-finding in the mesh mode (i.e., the MAX PSID). it is a
tradeoff. without the fixed offset, longest-match fails for the PSID
matching and there must be a way of distributing CE's PSID to other CEs.
however, it does also confuses me that the newest 4rd-U draft doesn't
mention the MAX PSID feature (or maybe i missed something).
