The use of MUST, etc, originated in RFC1122 in 1989. That RFC also contains this: 1.2.2 Robustness Principle At every layer of the protocols, there is a general rule whose application can lead to enormous benefits in robustness and interoperability [IP:1]: "Be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you send" This quote is also on the RFC1122 working group coffee cup on my shelf. It seems to apply here.
