MQTT standards are also correctly referenced normatively. Jean was only noting these appear as downrefs, but downrefs are not “mistakes”, they just require more attention – see https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp97 for more information. Downrefs are usually Last Called to make sure the community is aware of them, except for those that have appeared as downref for many documents and don’t need to be Last Called explicitly anymore: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/downref/.

Exactly so.  Thanks for the quick clarification, Francesca!
