This would open the door such that people who wanted to comply with the SHOULD-level recommendation in this spec in the presence of randomized MAC addresses still could (e.g., by implementing 7217 and using the randomized MAC as the Net_Iface parameter), but directly embedding a MAC address in the IID would still go against the SHOULD NOT recommendation here.

I don’t think I saw anyone respond to this suggestion, so I’d like to ask again for people’s opinions about this.

To my eye this is a nice compromise.
