Hi George,

Even when RP requests "prompt=create", IdP can allow logging into existing account on its signup page.
eg.,) https://login.aol.com/account/create <https://login.aol.com/account/create>

So that, allowing "prompt=create login” seems meaningful to me.

I'm happy to reduce this to SHOULD to allow for future possibilities. Or change the wording to explain that other prompt values that conflict with "create" should not be used.

>> More or less, yes:) There are some use cases where the client may want to allow the user to choose between the options (sign-up vs     sign-in) before starting the authentication flow. I don't think it precludes the OP from having to know that a client started an authenticate flow, the user chose the sign-up link/button and then at the end of registration the OP needs to redirect back to the client with a code. However, it does allow the client to optimize the experience.
