Thank you for pointing this out! I've added some advice here, but the
examples linked from RFC 8126 Section 4.6 don't seem to provide much
guidance to their designated experts, so I feel like I'm flying somewhat
blind here. Let me know what you think.

These are good points. Most of these requirements already have other
qualifiers ("reasonable"), so making these MUSTs makes sense. I've left
just a few as SHOULDs, for example "clients SHOULD do exponential backoff"
because a client may have some other reasonable non-exponential backoff
scheme it prefers.

Thanks again,
Aaron
