It's suitable for both.  It could perhaps benefit from being spelled out
more explicitly.

That's maybe a little strong - it could probably be weakened to "MAY".

I think either would be acceptable.  The server shouldn't actually set
the TC bot in those cases, so the client wouldn't be expected to
automatically failover to TCP.

I've no idea (yet) - that didn't exist when I wrote it :p
