That is *precisely* why the RFC is worded "should" -- it is optional.  If
the RFC said "must" then it is required.  RFCs are worded very carefully

I am just glad everyone doesn't have that attitude about RFCs.

I'm not sure I understand -- I'm not making this up, RFCs use "must" and
"should" very carefully.  The latter is a guideline, and the former is a
rule.  I'm trying to find the link describing this but it's eluding me at the
moment.

I think this is a VERY good thing; RFCs are like the laws of the internet;
they should not be open to interpretation since they define the protocols
used to interoperate.
