Hi John, there is a subtlety:

6.1 is a recipe for the resolver. It should not include EDNS0 Report Channel 
options in queries. It has no place here.

6.2 is a recipe for the authoritative server. The authoritative server includes 
the EDNS0 Report-Channel option unsolicited in responses. There is no 
requirement that the EDNS0 Report-Channel option is present in queries.

The point I’m trying to make is to please include the option in a response; 
don’t depend on the client to ask one, because there is no such requirement for 
the client to do so. 

Hope this helps.

Roy
