So what does that mean: that the API should contain a "don't

Definitely.

The use of DF in a datagram protocol is per-datagram decision -
depending on what the app needs to happen.

IMO, the app should never need to play with DF. It needs to know what it
thinks the transport can deliver - which might include transport
frag/reassembly and network frag/reassembly.
How does the App handle probes for path MTU then in UDP?
