What makes you think that stateless proxies have to make the same

You paragraph would make sense for stateful proxies for the duration
of the transaction.

(A) loose_route=true, --> just forward
(B) loose_route=false, --> lookup()*, forward
(C) loose_route=true, --> just forward
(D) loose_route=true, --> lookup()**, forward
Just a quick reminder that lookup() and forward don't go together. A
stateless proxy has to make the same decision for the same message (aka
re-sent request). Since entries in usrloc expire, there is a good chance
that a resent will be send somewhere else.
