Personally I see absolutely no harm in a (BCP) RFC saying "do this",
regardless of available "enforcement mechanisms".
Some people understand the reasons that you want described; they
already run .in-addr.arpa NSs. Other don't, but would not care to
read anyway. For some of those it would help to simply have an RFC
to point to - "please read RFCxyz.txt".
So, if for nothing else please move this draft forward.
