SAE-j1939-21 indeed says that all TP.DT must be 8 bytes.
However, the last TP.DT may contain up to 6 stuff bytes, which have no meaning.
If I remember well, they are even not 'reserved'.

I think this is a situation of
"be strict on what you send, be tolerant on what you receive".

Did you find a technical reason to abort a session because the last frame didn't
bring overhead that you don't use?
