Hi, Joe,

Thanks for your input! Please find my comments inline...

Is there any valid reason *for* sending SQs?

My understanding of Scott's point is that the motivation for a "SHOULD
NOT" rather than "MUST NOT" should be that there are exceptions under
which it could make sense to behave in a different way (rather than
whether there may be a negative impact if the advise is not followed).

So I'd agree with Scott that this should be "MUST NOT send, MUST ignore
if received".

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Best regards,
