My mistake. The DISCUSS criteria only apply to Protocol actions.

"Protocol Actions are naturally subject to greater scrutiny than Document
Actions; Area Directors are not even required to state a position on a
Document Action (the default being "No Objection"). Accordingly, the exact
criteria used to evaluate Protocol Actions would benefit from greater
scrutiny. The remainder of this document focuses on the use of DISCUSS for
standards-track and BCP documents."
