It's more of a race condition. RFCs 8460 and 8553 were written at about the same time and we didn't think to do another pass over newly published RFCs after the last draft of 8553. >I believe this falls under the "Expert Review" process in RFC 8552 Agreed. IANA has a form for you to submit here: https://www.iana.org/form/protocol-assignment At least one of the experts is a regular contributor here so perhaps they could say whether they need more.
