Generally speaking, document requirements should be communicated using "shall", while external constraints are described using "must"

There are other uses of "must", and other key words in uppercase, through the spec. Should I make them all lowercase, and turn all "must" to "shall"? (I don't think we have any external constraints)

Yes I would recommend it. Ecma doesn't have a specific direction regarding shall vs must, so we try to fall back to ISO (shall instead of must)
