I think you are trying to say the same as what is written - just
reverting the condition to say "accept".

The spec says:

if (NOT(seqno newer or equal) AND NOT(better throughput)) then DROP

Therefore the statement "if the OGM is newer then accept it" is part of
this condition already, no ? Moreover, correct me if I am wrong, but any
new OGM should be accepted at this step, not only those arriving from
the selected router, hence your statement would be also a bit confusing
imho.
