This is not an oversight. 

We are following a convention in ipsecme WG which is to not add the Update 
header if implementations are clearly able to distinguish the cases when an 
extension is being used even if the extension would change the behavior defined 
in the existing RFCs.

Please refer to this thread for a detailed discussion on the 
rationale/assessment:

Cheers,
