Of course.

What I was talking about was examples where it was quite clear that an
item was optional, but someone insisted that people were not in
compliance if they did not implement it.  One example of several
possible: the standards state what form a MSGID should take, but do not
insist that one be present.  Hence for someont to state that a system is
not in compliance because they do not have a MSGID is not a matter of
not being a native speaker, but simply one of attempting to impose their
own bias.
