MAPS seems to be the only one pushing for inclusion of this
requirement. Unless there's strong evidence that other BLs find it to
be a best practice, I say we call the discussion closed on this point
and move on.

It's not only too "type of BL" specific, it seems to be specific only
to a single BL.
