Actually, RFC 2046 is more recent, but says nearly the exact same
thing. It adds:
Systems should recognize that the content of the various parts [of
multipart/alternative sections] are interchangeable. Systems

references, in some cases even through user interaction.
By "Systems", I'm pretty sure they mean "recipient systems".
