In the current text, there is no comparison term such as “more optimizing”
or “reducing”. These terms are used to comparing two solutions. I echo Qiong
and Qi in their replies: this is not necessary to compare two solutions.
Similarly, I also think it is not necessary to mention lw4o6 in the MAP-E
draft. Besides, please correct me if I am wrong, I remember the WG decision
is not to explicitly defining 1:1 in the MAP-E base spec. If the WG wants to
work on 1:1 MAP, it will be on a separate draft.

You appear not to have had a problem with the current text. What is the
problem with the new one?
Also note that MAP-E would get also a suitable pointer to the lw46 draft
concerning the 1:1 mode.
