Thanks for the document.

Three editorial points:
- Transport profile -> Transport Profile

- "It is possible to argue that using MPLS for Transport is only a
   stepping stone in the middle of a longer transition."
Transport -> transport or Transport Profile?

-  "As we shall demonstrate, ..."
The RFC editor gave me in the past the advice to remove "we", "us", "our" from the future RFCs.

  Section 7 should be removed before publication as an RFC.

  The Gen-ART Review by Brian Carpenter reported one editorial problem.
  There is duplicated text in section 1.2:

I fully support the conclusion here and the argument

worst.

Excellently written, clear document.

Just a few minor editorial things; no need to reply to them:

-- Section 3.4 --
OLD
   In an isolated system this may be the
   case, however when, as is usually case with communications
   technologies, simplification in one element of the system introduces
   a (possibly non-linear) increase in complexity elsewhere.
NEW

OLD
   the cost of increased complexity at a peer network element we loose
   out economically
NEW

-- Section 3.6 --
OLD
   At the very least, the evaluation of these questions constitute a
   cost and introduce delay for the operator.
COMMENT
The subject is "evaluation", not "questions", so it's singular.
NEW

   cost and introduces delay for the operator.

-- Section 4.3.2.2 --
"straightforward" is one word, not hyphenated.  (Also in Appendix A.5)
