I think that the idea is to say “look, if you want to use a private name, these names are known to be safe.”   It’s not to say “the IETF hereby declares that the following names are safe,” but rather “the IETF is reporting that these names have been declared safe by this other SDO.”

The advice here is on how to avoid making that mistake.   It’s not a TLD allocation by IETF: those TLDs are already effectively allocated.
