That seems reasonable. It might be worth mentioning that in the text as 
an example of why one might not follow the SHOULD.

I suspect the "if you choose to" part was intended to be implied by "if 
a client becomes aware of an alternative service...", with the idea that 
only clients that implement this would "become aware". But I think it 
would be more clear to say something like "If a supporting client 
becomes aware..."

Thanks!
