it might be useful to be specific - “source fragmentation” rather than
“fragmentation”.

I would suggest the following, which includes the suggestions above:
The encapsulation performed by an upstream AFBR will increase the
size of packets. As a result, the outgoing I-IP link MTU may not
accommodate the larger packet size. It is not always possible for
core operators to increase the MTU of every link, thus source fragmentation
after encapsulation and reassembling of encapsulated packets MUST be
supported by AFBRs [RFC5565]. PMTUD [RFC8201] SHOULD be enabled and
ICMPv6 packets MUST NOT be filtered in the I-IP network. Fragmentation
and tunnel configuration considerations are provided in [RFC5565
and [I-D.ietf-intarea-tunnels]. The detailed procedure can be referred
in Section 7.2 of [RFC2473].
