This conversation appears to have gone in another direction. Is there any value left in comparing my config to what Eugene originally shared? I've been a bit tied up, I'm afraid.

"beyond the scope of the DHCP protocol" != "incompatible with correct operation of DHCP".

In fact, this section 4.3.1 explicitly notes that "... it may be
the case that the DHCP client should be assigned an address from
a different subnet than the address recorded in 'giaddr'".

This is exactly my case.
