COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Others have mentioned it seems odd that the document says (in several places)
that it recommends use of the CW, but section 4 says "MUST". In particular, the
document _title_ says RECOMMENDED in all caps, which could be interpreted as an
attempt at normative language.  I think this is likely to confuse at least some
readers.

§3: The "recent posting" is from 2016. Calling that "recent" is already a bit
dated.
