Normally, we ask for comments to go to the IAB mail list, but for
this document, it is more appropriate to use the RFC Interest list.
Please send comments to rfc-interest(_at_)rfc-editor(_dot_)org.

The document looks reasonable.
As an author, I have had exchanges in the past with an IESG member who
would, I believe, disagree with the advice in the first sentence, last
paragraph of Section 4.8.2. I am happy with that paragraph as it stands.
To simply specify a necessary logical relationship, the normal
lowercase words should be used. On the other hand, if the
capitalized words are used in a document, choose and use them
carefully and consistently.
Nit: last paragraph of Section 1, disagreement in number.
