>> • RFC 8505 isn't just about low power. > The titles says that, so the authors said that and including the IETF WG that published and examined it under such use cases Actually, it doesn’t. The title is Registration Extensions for IPv6 over 6LoWPAN Neighbor Discovery because 6LoWPAN Neighbor Discovery was invented for 6LoWPAN before we started applying it to the entirety of 6Lo. The RFC editor guidelines caused this title to be expanded to: Registration Extensions for IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN) Neighbor Discovery which is indeed the expansion of “6LoWPAN”, but does not help at all — it just muddies the waters by polluting the title with terms that are no longer relevant to the document at hand. (I’m not going to go into the other parts of the current discussion; I have no idea how something like OCB can be discussed without acknowledging the hidden terminal problem, a.k.a. non-transitive connectivity, so it seems to me I won't have much to contribute.)
