We are not agreeing on its dynamic nature. The rest we do.

IS is dealing with all the relevant info that can assist the HO decision. To
assume that in a middle of a few msec hanodoff the IS DB can be queried for
pertinent HO info. and exchange all of that over L3 is a very loaded assumption,
as it assumes that the IS DB will be updated at such resolutions and its info be
relevant to a a few msec process.


Your bleak statement is not so black and white. IS info is relevant and can be
very well defined but it is not dynamic in nature.
