Actually, I agree with you.  That text was from suggestion and I put it
in unaltered.  I thought about changing it to a SHOULD NOT.

But, I like some of your suggestions:

I think your point is valid and follows the intent: EDE is *not*
supposed to supersede other specifications that specify how to process a
DNS response.

> *Something like "applications SHOULD interpret EDE as supplemental to rcode

Again, makes sense.  I think it's covered by your other sentence though?
(which I've just replaced the previous sentence with)
