having implemented and operated this recursive server logic over many years,
i can assure you that its cold-cache performance is broadly unremarkable.

it mustn't be required but also must be permitted. that does place a
constraint on the protocol's future evolution. so it's possible that
neither "informational" or "experimental" are strong enough. i think
if the document states that the feature is optional for implementors
and operators, then its status could be proposed standard, safely.
