=> it should work too but the advantage of dealing with the PRL is
you will get the expected result if the option 43 is defined locally,
for instance in a class. Note the option 43 itself will change soon
in Kea because current code requires improvement (and even a fix).

=> you should check that some critical values are not 0, for instance
the result of the dynamic cast. This should make your code more robust.
