I don’t think so.  Section 2.3 comes before 4.7.2.4.1.

That said, I think the very end of the quoted text could be improved as follows:

"The creation-point selection of <reference-point> will provide an output comparing the current private-candidate configuration datastore with the same private-candidate datastore at the time it was created."
