The concept supplements not only RFC 2119 but also the
discussion of "requirement levels" in RFC 2026 section 3.3.
I think that should be mentioned.

That section of RFC 2026 talks about Applicability Statements. Does that
really apply here? I think that the new terms only apply to TSs, not ASs.

Well, I've been looking at that aspect of 2026 quite closely
while working on draft-carpenter-rfc2026-changes, and I think it's
a bit confused. The only place in 2026 where requirement levels for
individual features is discussed is in the description of ASs, but
we normally define the requirement levels in TSs. So I think 2026
is inconsistent with reality there. Anyway, adding this reference
to your draft is a matter of taste.
