Hi Stephen,
Thank you for your comments.
I agree with you that new SAV mechanisms
MUST NOT invalidate modern privacy-enhancing mechanisms (such as MAC-address randomization).
Furthermore, I think the new SAV mechanisms MUST NOT invalidate other more mechanisms
(such as route policies and TE). Otherwise, legitimate traffic would be
improperly blocked.
Therefore, in Section 5.2, we say “improper block MUST be avoided to guarantee that legitimate traffic will not be blocked” because this is a more general statement, so we do not specify mechanisms that must not be invalidated. I would like to learn more suggestions.
Best,
Lancheng

Hiya, I think there's a missing requirement in section 5. SAVI is mentioned as an example of an existing mechanism, but since that was developed, MAC-address randomisation schemes have been widely deployed (on some hosts) for very good reasons. I would assert you ought therefore state a requirement that new SAV mechanisms MUST NOT invalidate modern privacy-enhancing mechanisms (such as MAC-address randomisation). Thanks, S.
