This observation will entail that the MPC-based policy with stability requirements will produce the optimal policy for the discounted MDP if it is stable, and the best stabilizing policy otherwise.

When a baseline linear controller exists that is already well tuned in the absence of constraints and MPC is introduced to enforce them, one would like to avoid altering the original linear feedback law whenever they are not active.

In Model Predictive Control (MPC) formulations of trajectory tracking problems, infeasible reference trajectories and a-priori unknown constraints can lead to cumbersome designs, aggressive tracking, and loss of recursive feasibility.
