Current text: / The Tunnel Egress Endpoint and Color Sub-TLVs of the Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute [RFC9012] are not used for SR Policy encodings and therefore their value is irrelevant in the context of the SR Policy SAFI NLRI. If present, the Tunnel Egress Endpoint sub- TLV and the Color sub-TLV MUST be ignored by the BGP speaker and MAY be removed from the Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute during propagation.
Similarly, any other sub-TLVs (including those defined in [RFC9012]) whose applicability is not specifically defined for the SR Policy SAFI MUST be ignored by the BGP speaker and MAY be removed from the Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute during propagation./
RTG-DIR Issue 11: Section 2.3 - Clarity of usage of TLVs defined in RFC9012
Section: 2.3. Applicability of Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute Sub-TLVs Text:/ The Tunnel Egress Endpoint and Color sub-TLVs, as defined in [RFC9012], may also be present in the SR Policy encodings./
Jeffrey: Why do we say the above given the following paragraph? They seem to be contractive.

Jeffrey: Why don't we say any those sub-TLVs not defined in this document must not be present and must be ignored?
