If you proposed an informational RFC published through the ISE 'This
how we do Happy Eyeballs at Apple' then it would be perfectly fine with me.

However, this is proposed as a BCP, which has the same status as standard.
So if you write a BCP with MUSTs, etc. then you are telling people how
they should write their apps. That the purpose of a BCP.
