[Pushpasis] I am trying give both options to a operator (i.e. Single SRGB
with per-topology SID-index as well as single SID-index with per-topology
SRGB). Depending on which one the operators prefer, one of them becomes
redundant :) Also the MTID is not attached to the prefix-SID but the
prefix with which the SID-index is attached. That is an existing
information outside SR. Again in my opinion, MTID with SRGB will be
preferable than MTID with prefix-SID, in case one needs to be preferred
the other.

[Pushpasis] Sorry if I sound like that. But I am deducing the proposal out
of a requirement which I think is relevant to most operators. If operators
think they are fine with one SID-index per topology for the same prefix, I
will take back my proposal. But yet again I think that operators will
prefer to have the same index for the same prefix across multiple
topologies and just have one SRGB per topology. I urge all the operators
to provide their preference.

Thanks
