I think you appear to be getting "requestor" and "responder" confused in your 
proposed text. Did you mean to say the following?

UDP responders should compose response response packets with a maximum UDP 
payload size that fits in the minimum 
of the offered requestor's maximum UDP payload size, [RFC6891], the interface 
MTU, the network MTU value configured by the knowledge of the network 
operators, 
and the RECOMMENDED maximum DNS/UDP payload size 1400.
