Summary: I have no technical comments or questions. However, I do have one editorial question/comment that I'd like the authors to address.

Major issues: N/A

Minor issues: N/A

Nits/editorial comments:

The "Flex-Algorithm" is used throughout the document, and Section 1 contains the following sentence:


   "A Flex-Algorithm [RFC9350] is defined as a
   set of parameters consisting of calculation-type, metric-type, and a
   set of constraints to allow operators to have more control over the
   network path computation."

Is this correct? Isn't that the definition for FAD? Flex-Algorithm is just a numeric identifier.

  "In this document, we define further
   extensions to Flex-Algorithm that will allow operators additional
   control over their traffic flows, especially with respect to
   bandwidth constraints."

Similar to the previous comment, in what way is Flex-Algorithm extended, assuming it is just an identifier?
