Hi Bruno,

[Bruno2] I agree that everyone should already want to interoperable. But the 
unfortunate reality is that not everyone does. I believe that RC3107 is a 
relatively well-known example: some implementors have deliberately not 
implemented all (implicit) MUST at the cost of interop issues for network 
operators. Some details 
inhttps://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8277#section-1 I have other more 
recent examples but I'd rather avoid pointing to specific implementations.


So you're admitting that 'MUST' doesn't guarantee interoperability. So why 
fight about it?

MUST does not guarantee interoperability for implementations which are not 
compliant with the RFC. (i.e., implementation which does not respect the MUST. 
By design or bugs)
Implementations which are compliant with RFC are interoperable.
