Question about the the Sanctus in a Sung Mass according to De Musica Sacra

As I am helping to prepare our daughter's Baptism and Mass, I happened to discover this quote from De Musica Sacra:

d) If the Sanctus-Benedictus are sung in Gregorian chant, they should be put together without interruption; otherwise, the Benedictus should be sung after the Consecration.


This appears in the indications for Sung Masses.

My question is: is this still valid? I have seen videos of sung Masses by the ICRSS where this is not observed. How binding then is De Musica Sacra?
