The next sentence just after this one 
" The answerer can send back zero or more
   provisional answers, and finally end the offer-answer exchange by
   sending a final answer."  
does not describe quite well either, right?

AFAIK , the answerer can send back zero or more provisional answers, but they are not all SDP answers, 

and I don't find any place in RFC 3264 has the definition about "final answer".
