it means the software in question does not indicate, hint, suggest, or

that's a flaw in your thinking and an assumption based on non-existant
information... most all FTN software quite proudly states somewhere in its
documentation what FTN specifications it supports... synchronet does not state
anything about FTS-0009 usage but it does state that it uses and supports some
other FTN specs...


but anyway, here... read this and take your argument up with the main
developer(s)...

please also note the highly important use of the word "should" in FTS-0009...
note that FTS-1006 provides the definition for it ;)
