Rather, we need to figure out what the purpose of the statement is, and what problem it is trying to solve.

The phonebcp and framework documents are unusual in that they make very broad claims to cover all emergency calls over IP.  Since there are other mechanisms that are likely to be used in some environments,  it's important to clarify that while these documents describe a solution they do not describe these other environments nor interoperbility with solutions used in those environments.

Per the definition of an applicability statement, all of phonebcp can be considered to be one.

 RFC 2026 Section 3.2 describes the purpose of applicability statements as follows:
3.2  Applicability Statement (AS)

   An Applicability Statement specifies how, and under what
   circumstances, one or more TSs may be applied to support a particular
   Internet capability.  An AS may specify uses for TSs that are not
   Internet Standards, as discussed in Section 7.

   An AS identifies the relevant TSs and the specific way in which they
   are to be combined, and may also specify particular values or ranges
   of TS parameters or subfunctions of a TS protocol that must be
   implemented.  An AS also specifies the circumstances in which the use
   of a particular TS is required, recommended, or elective (see section
   3.3).
