Do you have a quote for that from the standard? What I know and read
everywhere is that the standard specifies the outer s-tag to always be
0x88A8.

The other thing is that we don't live in an ideal world and there are a
lot of non-standard implementations out there, which might use 0x8100,
0x9100, 0x9200, 0x9300... for the outer s-tag, that's why using the
user-provided proto is better.
