"Requirement: DMM solutions SHOULD support multicast services. If a specific 
DMM solution does not support multicast services, an explanation MUST be 
provided."

To me that reads basically "do not break foundations for multicast unless you 
have a valid & documented reason for it".  If we look e.g. into RFC625 
multicast wording that is there very briefly but gives a hint to a developer 
where to head to. That is the level I would expect DMM documents should aim to.
