Section 2:

* Some of the MUST and MUST NOT requirements are stated on the message
itself without stating the sender side rules.

e.g. 

   The Additional PMSI Tunnel Attribute Flags Extended Community MUST
   NOT be carried by a given BGP UPDATE message unless the following
   conditions both hold:

e.g. 

   The sender of a given BGP UPDATE message MUST NOT include an
Additional 
   PMSI Tunnel Attribute Flags Extended Community unless the following
   conditions both hold:

* The following text seems to be redundant as there is a receiver rule
that verifies exactly this. What exactly is the intent of this text and
