Poor wording on my side.  This should have been "strong PTR requirements",
like "you must have one", "it must match forward" and, I think, "it
should be something that looks like a algorithmically-mapped address".

Which is all good practice anyway, so this annoys me less than the 
*difference* between their v4 and v6 requirements, and that the v6
requirements are not always easy to understand - like, you get an
error about your PTRs, but they are all there and symmetric...
