Hi John!

Yes, IMO, making it MUST, doesn't require new text.  Saying SHOULD means there is additional behavior to cover with mitigation guidance.

I leave it to the WG to determine the right approach.  Personally, I agree with your intuition, if someone wants to extend this work they can update it more formally to relax the constraints.

Roman
