Why not MUST? Wouldn't violation of this requirement introduce
interoperability problems between different implementations?

It's a SHOULD because the WG believed that there may be some exception cases
where an alternate format makes more sense.

Speaking as an implementor, who implemented something similar: I think SHOULD 
is exactly right here. I would personally object to making this mandatory.
