Good point, could add something like this:
"... The random selection process SHOULD be designed such that on average the spin bit is disabled for at least one eighth of connections. Disabling the spin bit for a large enough fraction of connections makes it difficult for an observer to distinguish between connections that disable the spin bit explicitly or by random selection. "
