Ron, The first sentence cites RFC8402 which unambiguously describes SR as a limited domain protcol (limited to an "SR domain", that is.)
So within such a domain, this describes using 128 bit quantities called Segment Identifiers that in some cases, but apparently not in the formats defined here, has the same structure as an IP address. Does that harm the Internet, even if it leaks? It might disappoint the sender, as any sender of a bogus packet is disappointed, but apart from that, who is damaged?
