       It doesn't appear that the authors of this RFC had it in mind that
       gophers would *always* appear on port 70:
       
           There is nothing to prevent secondary servers or services from running
           on otherwise named servers or ports other than 70, however these
           should be reachable via a primary server.
       
       Also, the word "should" doesn't mandate compliance. It's a
       recommendation.
