> The MUST is not implied anywhere.

It's implied everywhere.  It's implied by the fact that UDP is lossy.  It is implied in that there are rules for handling of malformed frames and mandates to generate a connection error in that case.

You would prefer that it be explicit, I get that, but this is better described as an axiom.
