Re: Questions on Frame Size

While I agree with your conclusion, I disagree with your explanation. I
think it's inappropriate to explain something as we hashed it out in the
f2f, sorry you weren't there to argue it.

This is also why I nitpick on commit messages that explain something as
"decided at f2f" without an explanation of the rationale.
