 ## Design
 
-The fix for this source of unsoundness is twofold:
-
-1. make all table literals unsealed, and
-2. only allow stripping optional properties from when the
-   supertype is sealed and the subtype is unsealed.
-
-This RFC is for (1). There is a [separate RFC](unsealed-table-subtyping-strips-optional-properties.md) for (2).
+The proposed change is straightforward: make all table literals unsealed.
