I think that indicating that multiple responses MAY be sent with complementary and/or possibly overlapping links, it may help grasp the overall principle and the relation between these informational responses and the final one. The case I'm having in mind is the same as described in the PR comment, a server-side gateway could speculatively send a 103 with a few site-specific links while the server provides another 103 with some resource-specific links.
