Publishing iteration count higher than 10 is reckless as that affects the 
performance of recursive resolvers in particular the ones that run on small CPE 
equipment.

The document should strongly discourage any use of NSEC3 <full stop> 
For the <censored> that want to keep using it the limit should be real low of 
what resolvers accept. 
Any value between 0 and 10 is fine with me
