The question is really whether we are ever going to have multiple
ITSes, in which case we will need to identify which ITS this single
pre-ITS is associated with, given that it can only target one. And
while I would prefer zero pre-ITSes in all cases [as would Marc, I'm
sure], having a pre-ITS for each ITS frame is not unimaginable either.
So yes, we need to record this information in one way or the other.
