Yet the option value is 0x07, i.e. the two highest bits are both zero which according to: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2460#section-4.2 means we should just skip it. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5570#section-5.1.1 reaffirms that. In terms of sending an icmp on error while validating: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5570#section-6.2.2 is pretty conservative in that case too. Most errors should just be silently dropped.
