I also note that in standards speak, "normally" is equivalent to

In which language, pray? Certainly not in English.
As I said, In "standards speak."
"Should" or "must" => always (at least if done right; anything else is
wrong).
"May" => optional; alternatives are possible and allowed.
"Normally" implies that there are other allowable alternatives, i.e.,
"may not" is both possible and allowable.
