Section 6.13.4 of draft-transport-14 defines the first byte of the stateless reset packet as:

   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |0|K|1|1|0|0|0|0|
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

I notice that the first byte is slightly different from the specification of the short header in section 4.2:

   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
   |0|K|1|1|0|R R R|
   +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

Is that deliberate, or just an oversight?

It was deliberate, but only as a simplification. Once we know what those R values are, we can fix this too.

This has been addressed. The text now shows:

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|0|1|               Unpredictable Bits (182..)                ...
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
