Did you read the new replacement sentence?

      Applications MUST continue to follow requirements from applicable
      specs on how to process RCODEs no matter what EDE values is also
      received.

Is that sufficient?

Not sure why you think the authors think that.  We've (I think all) been
arguing "this is for debugging".  I do push back on unnecessary MUSTs a
lot of the time, but I think the above text is better and still uses
strong language and indicates precedence goes to other specs.
