Most SHOULDs I've written are more like "MUST unless you have some
some good reasons that we haven't bothered to enumerate".  These serve
as an escape valve for people who want to break the rules in a
controlled environment.

That's interoperability requirements though, not implementation.  I
haven't ever done anything equivalent to MUST implement/SHOULD
implement, which is what we are talking about here.
