But the existing text is the text which gives this rule or at least
try to. I.e. it tries to say that if implementation cannot guarantee
that all Child SAs and IKE SAs stay up together, then you cannot
negotiate all those Child SAs using the same IKE SA.

This same can partially be seen from the:

  Receipt of a fresh cryptographically protected message on an IKE SA
  or any of its Child SAs ensures liveness of the IKE SA and all of
  its Child SAs.

text, but some people might be missing the point that ALL Child SAs
and corresponding IKE SAs must stay up together.
