The shepherd writeup is incomplete with respect to the first question.
All of the SHOULDs in Section 2 leave me wondering under what conditions one
might legitimately deviate from what they are saying. Since SHOULD offers a
choice, I recommend making this more clear.
The draft mentions some SHOULD related to the file name.
Ex: The name of the instance data file SHOULD be of the form:
For those SHOULD, we followed the RFC 7950,
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7950#section-5.2, which also
used SHOULD
