There's "frowned upon" and "frowned upon".  :-)  For instance, if
the only reason it's discouraged is because it causes connections
to start running slower, then I would consider that something worth
rethinking.  If there are cases where it actively causes issues
for the far end stack, then it probably should be avoided.

That RFC is old enough that it's worth double checking that the
recommendations still make sence today.
