It isn't.  As I suggested, the document qualifies under more than one of 
the reasons.
I left off a derivative point, which is that 'Experimental' is a signal 
to the wider technical and operations community that comments are 
sought.  As they are, in this case.
There seems to be an inordinate focus on the loop detection benefit, 
while ignoring the handling trace audit use that was, frankly, the 
original reason for developing the document.
