Why not:

Because if you publish an SPF2 record without a TXT record, those of us
who can't query for an SPF2 record will conclude that you didn't publish
anything.

Just make it clear what it means to not publish the TXT or not publish the SPF2. Then it is the publishers choice.

My real point was adding the 3rd line, not quibbling over whether TXT should be a MAY or a SHOULD.
