the DOCUMENT is! It's wording is screaming that the signer MUST be SWORN by the notary, and that can ONLY be accomplished with a JURAT certificate showing the oath/affirmation was indeed given. Surely you're not suggesting that the document requirement to administer the oath should be ignored, or that the oath should be given, but not shown in the notary certificate? How would you prove it was given if the document was called into question?
