One problem I have with the current text is that it buries the lede.
It doesn't outright say what it is doing (worse because I tried to
skip the parenthetical in the paragraph that says this and it never
closes.  Then you have to sift through pages of RFC 6376 that are
largely unchanged.

It's a simple statement.  The document to make that statement should
easily fit on one page (plus one for header boilerplate, plus one for
references and back matter).
