The handover signaling is defined to reduce latency. If they are not
available or used then the implication is that latency is not an issue.
OTH, assuming there is no handover signaling and trying to design a new
one in 802.21 is not a good approach.

I am 100% with you.

Are you suggesting 802.21 design should always assume FMIPv6 or
something equivalent deployed in the upper layer? If we design 802.21 in
that way, what about those scenarios where no FMIPv6 or something
equivalent is available?

Not only there are known IPR claims against FMIPv6 in IETF, in general
designing 802.21 to favor any single L3MP mechanism is IMHO a bad idea.
