People who are used to reading ISO specifications know that "shall" means that a normative rule is imposed: no other name, except "Off" is allowed for the off state. People who are used to reading ISO specifications also know that "should" means that a recommendation is being made: it is recommended to use "Yes" for the on state, but if you use any other name, your PDF is still valid. (And it is common practice to use names other than "Yes".)
