No hat on and I'm not commenting on the specific case at hand.

On the general point, I think it's better to err a bit toward the
generous side.  As an author I use as a rule of thumb whether or not I
or the working group has taken someone's suggestion and put it into
text.  And it has to be more than editorial.  A missing "," doesn't get
you into acknowlegments, but highlighting confusion or clarifying
language probably does.
