Hi all,

The router could split information between RAs (and send it at
different intervals). It may be difficult to guess what is stale and
what is just "not in this RA".

You ask the router, and the router responds.

If you want to consider the case where the router intentionally splits the options into multiple packets (which does not exist in practice), AND the link is super lossy, you just increase the number of retransmissions.

There's no guessing.

Thanks,
