That is okay with me.

And, I would agree with Valery; I also would prefer to avoid putting numbers 
that sound concrete; especially on something that is
hard to measure (and “amount of entropy” is notoriously hard to measure – you 
can measure length, but that doesn’t actually mean
“guessability”, which is what we’re trying to get at).

I agree with not putting in numbers. I am worried about rejecting
anything as an implementation though because whichever implementation
has the strongest checks will be the least compatible. So in the end,
the text you suggested to add will have to be completely ignored by
implementers :/
