Loop detection rewording #17

Closed fiestajetsam closed 1 year ago

fiestajetsam commented 1 year ago

Ulrich suggests:

Isn't it preferable to use positive requirements instead of negative ones? For example: Instead of " The protocol's loop avoidance mechanisms SHOULD NOT use identifiers tied to network topology." Why not " The protocol's loop avoidance mechanisms SHOULD be able to use identifiers that change over time. "?

I'd propose rewording it to:

The protocol's loop avoidance mechanisms MUST be able to use identifiers that change over time and are not tied to network topology

cc @davidv1992 as this touches your contributions and I suspect you'll have opinions about the text I've proposed in 3cd72f231b4aad3.

I see no problems in the new wording.
