I read the text again (Section 6.4).  It is difficult to say what is
deemed abusive.  You could get around that with, for example:

   A client SHOULD limit the number of simultaneous open connections
   that it maintains to a given server as each connection consumes
   server resources.

Please note that I used some text from the third paragraph of that section.

Well, there are more reasons for limiting the connection; that's why we have a separate paragraph about it. Just moving one of them up here doesn't look like an improvement to me.

Best regards, Julian
