I'd say it should be this instead:
"If you find more than one atom:foo2, fail.
If you don't find an atom:foo2,
* and you really, really need it,
you are allowed to fail and still call yourself Atom compliant.
Process the atom:foo2 if it exists."
Examples of "need it":
a search robot that is looking for either summary or content
a spammer tool that searches for email addresses in author elements
(yes, I know that's a MAY)
