Section 5.2.1 says:
There are two formats for Header Extension fields, as depicted in Figure 2. The first format is used for variable-length extensions, with Header Extension Type (HET) values between 0 and 127. The second format is used for fixed-length (one 32-bit word) extensions, using HET values from 127 to 255.
It should say:

Notes:
the correct range for one 32-bit word extension HET values starts from 128, and not from 127.

Section 2 says:
Beyond support for congestion control, LCT provides a number of fields and supports functionality commonly required by many protocols. For example, LCT provides a Transmission Session ID that can be used to identify to which session each received packet belongs. This is important because a receiver may be joined to many sessions concurrently, and thus it is very useful to be able to demultiplex packets as they arrive according to the session to which they belong. As another example, there are optional fields within the LCT packet header for identifying the object about which information is carried in the packet payload.

Notes:
There is an inconsistency in the definition of the TSI acronym. There are 6 instances of TransPORT session identifier/ID, and 2 instances of TransMISSION session identifier/ID. The other instance is in section 3, paragraph 3 ("One of the required fields is the TransMISSION Session ID (TSI).")
