Hi Ming-Li,

Just a note of moderation here: a lot of non-native English speakers
on this list (including the RIT programmers on occasion!) use the word
"must" where "could", "should" and "aught" are clearly more apt. It is
a matter of limited understanding and poor translation rather than the
intention to use the imperative.

FWIW I agree with you.
