Umm...but most businesses (and the government even) restrict *WHERE* you
can smoke (because smoking is also harmful to others, just as open relays
are). So if you're going to use smoking as an analogy, then MAPS is my
right to a "smoke-free zone".

you MUST. The RFC you quoted is a "Best Current Practices" document.
You know, like "The Surgeon General had determined that [insert your
favorite vice here] is bad for your health". i.e, he can't order you
MUST stop smoking, maybe you SHOULD consider it because yadayada.
