Why would we want to risk having an incorrect section reference to a document which is still being revised? This needlessly introduces a dependency such that if the section numbering changes in the SR-MPLS draft we would then have to update the dependent document(s). Note this has nothing to do with the SID overlap discussion itself. The compelling reason to NOT discuss this in the IGP documents but simply refer to the document that defines the solution is so that whatever the outcome in SPRING the IGP documents do not also have to be changed.
