Does this document intend to classify RFC 3697 as Historic?

The keyword boilerplate does not include "NOT RECOMMENDED", but the text does (in Section 3).

An informative or perhaps even normative reference to BCP 106 (RFC 4086) might be in order regarding the assignment of flow label values.

An informative reference to RFC 4732 might be in order regarding denial of service.

A reference to draft-ietf-mpls-entropy-label-00 would seem appropriate since
they seek to achieve the same though at different layers.
