"Strongly suggest" is definitely as far as I would go because you may have a bit if a chicken and egg problem. Some processes may prefer to configure the parent first while others may wish to configure the delegated name servers first. More specifically, I have a no-configuration reverse server which deduces its NS details from the delegation (the goal being to minimize duplication of configuration information). It's impossible for it to be configured and serve correctly without first gaining information from the delegating parent.
