Then you're arguing for something stronger than what the draft 
proposes. The draft uses SHOULD, where to match your understanding, it 
would need a MUST.

Could you post the section you are referring to?

Sure, section 10 of the errata draft:

"... The Signer MAY choose to use the same namespace for its UAIDs as its 
users' email addresses, or MAY choose other means of representing its 
users. However, the signer SHOULD use the same UAID for each message 
intended to be evaluated as being within the same sphere of 
responsibility, if it wishes to offer receivers the option of using the 
UAID as a finer grained, stable identifier than the SDID."

I believe you're talking about increasing the strength of that SHOULD.
