I find myself curious about both SHOULDs in 

   Resolver software SHOULD treat the response to the priming query as a
   normal DNS response, just as it would use any other data fed to its
   cache.  Resolver software SHOULD NOT expect exactly 13 NS RRs.
   
Do you think these SHOULDs (especially the first one) are required for
interoperation? I'm wondering (1) why they aren't MUSTs, and (2) why RFC
2119 language is actually needed at all. If they are RFC 2119 SHOULDs,
what happens if the resolver software violates them?
