Clarification needed in SPS ordering information semantics

Description

The definitions of sps_max_dec_pic_buffering_minus1, sps_max_num_reorder_pics and sps_max_latency_increase_plus1, which define ranges based on the corresponding parameters in the VPS, don't state what should be done in the case where vps_max_sub_layers_minus1!=sps_max_sub_layers_minus1. This is particularly a problem if vps_max_sub_layers_minus1<sps_max_sub_layers_minus1, as some elements of these parameters won't have corresponding elements in the VPS. Unless I've missed something in the spec?

The semantics of vps_max_sub_layers_minus1 and sps_max_sub_layers_minus1 imply that vps_max_sub_layers_minus1 is always equal to or greater than sps_max_sub_layers_minus1. However, I agree that it would have been clearer if we add in the semantics of sps_max_sub_layers_minus1 that "The value of sps_max_sub_layers_minus1 shall be less than or equal to vps_max_sub_layers_minus1". Would explicitly saying the implicit restriction sufficiently address this issue?

Thanks for the reply - yes, that would be fine.
