thanks for the remarks. The specification is now updated with more
clarifications

So "Segment Header Present" is 1 if it's present and 0 if it's absent?


indeed. This is updated in the document.


Type 75 is still labeled as "ODMA REQ" rather than "OFDMA REQ".  Also, it
says "ODMA REQ (75): as described by section 7.4.8 "REQ Messages" of the
DOCSIS 3.1 Physical Layer Specification. This is the "REQ message in MAC"
in figure 7-11 (56 bits).", but I don't see a figure numbered 7-11 in the
DOCSIS 3.1 Physical Layer Specification (CM-SP-PHYv3.1-I12-171026) - is
this from another version of that document?


Apparently, the figure had number 7-11 in version I11 of the PHY spec, and
is figure number 14 in version I12 of the spec. I updated the number to 14,
to reflect the number in the more recent spec. I also added references to
the DOCSIS MULPI and PHY specification version numbers, to avoid confusion
in the future.
