> (Background for my initial observation: When you give an assignment to students and their favorite PDF viewer crashes on the required reading material, they’ll simply say they can’t do the assignment instead of trying out other readers.)

Since the PDF RFCs display without trouble in the default viewers on 
Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS, and Chrome, I am impressed at the creativity 
of your students who went to the effort to find a PDF viewer that didn't 
work.
