The problem with taht paragraph is that it assumes that the UDP
encapsulator knows what the payload is.
It seems to me that one could easily be applying the UDP in any one of a
number of cases where the payload will not be known.
So the requirement in the paragraph seems at best difficult to meet.
And has been noted, this seems to place an expectation on UDP
encapsulated MPLS that is not present for MPLS itself, when the traffic
is not known to be IP.

Let the encapsulated transport protocols take care of the congestion
end-to-end.
Xu Xiaohu proposed a good paragraph:
