No:  I agree it is the proper default for the TLD authorities and roots, but 
for everything else, the higher value should be what the resolver requests.

Enshrining "tho shalt never fragment" into the Internet Architecture is 
dangerous, and will cause far MORE problems. Having something which regularly 
exercises fragmentation as critical to the infrastructure and we wouldn't have 
this problem where 10% of the resolvers are broken WRT fragmentation.
