Yes, but they do not force any kind of specific policies.
They give recommendations and points to be taken into account, for sane choices.

For RFC6781, note how the introduction explains that the document **discusses** various points
they do not define anything.
Contrary to the draft being discussed that starts by saying:
"This document defines an operational practice"

Note also how the document you cite tries to take into account all existing
cases in the wild, not a subset of them. I have tried to show that the draft presented
just forgets about existing cases, which could hinder its wide adoption.
