This is true, but when we discussed it last time while in RFC editor phase of the rfc5996bis (which came out to be RFC7296) we decided that this emphasis is useful, and decided to keep it. https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipsec/current/msg09362.html https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipsec/current/msg09365.html At that point we fixed the text to use same RFC2119 wording in both places. I do not think there has been anything that really changed the reasons why we decided to kept it twice in the document since that, so I think the text should stay at it is now. > Instructions: > ------------- > This erratum is currently posted as "Reported".
