I just made a quick scan of the P&C's latest ED and I did not find any any such statements. If there are no such dependencies - and my expectation is there should not be - then, SHOULD in the second sentence above is the strongest statement that can be made. Any of: using MAY, making the statement as non-normative text, or removing it altogether would be appropriate if there is no such a dependency. If there is such a dependency, then that's probably a bug we need to discuss. -Regards, Art Barstow
