I don't disagree that there is value in talking about requirements, but if the 
discussion is incomplete, the impression of the reader can be that, for 
example, there is no tradeoff in logging source ports, and it's just something 
everybody should do all the time for every connection.

My goal in asking you about Stephen's suggestion was to know whether you would 
object to that scope of work as opposed to the more narrow scope that this 
document addresses.   Whether or not work happens is always chancy, but if we 
set out with a smaller scope, we can be fairly sure that the additional work 
will not be done.

As far as I'm concerned, if the larger scope of work isn't done, the document 
will cause more harm than good.  My question to you is whether, if the scope 
were enlarged as Stephen has proposed, you would object to doing that work.   I 
understand your skepticism about it being done, but that's not what I'm asking.
