The idea is that only the administrators that must follow the legislation or 
regulations need to enable them.  I think this point is clear already, but you 
did not copy the whole sentence:

   The default server or
   responder configuration SHOULD disable such algorithms; in this way,
   explicit action by the system administrator is needed to enable them
   where they are actually required.

Fixed.
