Hi Heikki,

Thanks a lot for looking into this. Kindly see my response inline:

Could you kindly provide some detail on when "Alternate-Direct" would be
preferred to the current method?
Also, is there anything on the PMC side which is preventing the use of
"Alternate-Direct" messages? It seems like the state transition diagram
there would be simpler, although I'm likely missing significant details
here.

I see. How would orientation then be handled in a retimer configuration
where AUX/SBU is flipped by the retimer itself?
