It's unfortunate to add yet another special case in this code, and I'm
not thrilled about the one in aer_root_reset() either. It's just not
obvious why they should be there. I'm sure if I spent 30 minutes
decoding things, it would all make sense. Guess I'm just griping
because I don't have a better suggestion.

I'm sorry, this was unkind of me. If I don't have a constructive
idea, there's no reason for me to complain about this. I apologize.

No worries at all. The unfortunate handling of the Spec for RCEC/RCiEP associations and the added needs for native versus non-native is frustrating.
