And if the Area id is not carried in the LSA header than it wouldn't matter
when the ABR floods summary LSAs across area 0. The only place area ids must
match is in the hello packet to form and adjacency between the corresponding
ABR and internal router. The requirement is simply all non-area 0 area must
talk to area 0....
