I think the current text:

   In particular one should note that the use of A6 records in the
   forward tree or Bitlabels in the reverse tree is not recommended [2].
   Using DNAME records is not recommended in the reverse tree in
   conjunction with A6 records; the document did not mean to take a 
   stance on any other use of DNAME records [5].

is good, because it clarifies the intent.  Removing it would be worse.
Do you agree?
