This is a mechanical check.  We could give IANA a tool. 

But it’s also something that just isn’t much of an issue.  Suppose it expired.  Then what?  Verification officially fails.  Verifiers could choose to use the expired certificate if they wanted.   Is removing the entry actually helpful?  I think not.

So I’d just delete the text, replacing it with "registrants MUST keep the registered data valid by updating it as needed".
