Let me propose that we add something to sections 6.7.5, 6.7.9, and 6.7.11 like:

Addition of temporary flooding should be done with caution, as the addition of 
excessive connectivity to the flooding topology may trigger unwanted behavior. 
Routers SHOULD add temporary flooding in a rate limited manner, if not 
configured otherwise.

This is the addition of one link, and in particular the onus is really on the 
DIS to drive synchronization.  Per your above arguments, I’m comfortable with 
this.
