There is IESG explanation of the distinction here:

Quoting from that, I think this is the criteria that makes it most clear
Informational is appropriate for DOCSIS-PIE:
"""
1. If it's not going to be changed no matter what the result is, it's
Informational. This is typically the case with vendor protocols; the
vendor will publish it for the good of the community, but retains
full change control, and gives no promises about listening to
community feedback. Case in point: "Microsoft Point-To-Point
Encryption (MPPE) Protocol" (RFC 3078).
"""
It's simply what was done elsewhere, and not going to be changed. Greg
was kind enough to write it up, and it's useful information for the
community, so the WG had decided to put it forward as Informational.
Does that make sense?
