<https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/75> The spec current says: """ A 421 (Misdirected Request) response may carry an Alt-Svc header field. """ I think Mike is suggesting a change to something like: """ A 421 (Misdirected Request) response MUST NOT carry an Alt-Svc header field, and clients MUST ignore any Alt-Svc header field in one. """ Another approach would be to caution implementations that loops are possible if an Alt-Svc on a 421 is followed, and to exercise caution (including loop detection with fallback to origin).
