Comment: 
The maximum delay through each layer is specified in Table 69-3, so that users know what to expect.  But the FEC sublayer isn't mentioned, and it will need a reasonable delay allocation.
CommentEnd: 
SuggestedRemedy: 
Insert another row, between 10GBASE-R PCS and 10GBASE-KR PMA/PMD.  Choose a comfortable maximum round-trip delay limit.  Copy and modify 72.4 Delay constraints (without the last sentence) into Clause 74.
