A (possibly stupid) question occurred to me today -

Why doesn't RFC6164 formally update RFC3627? As it stands, this either 
clarifies the existing guidance in 3627 or obsoletes it, but only includes 3627 
as an informative reference. I don't remember there being much discussion about 
this particular aspect of the draft. I know there was lots of discussion about 
should/shouldn't use /127s, but not about this particular thing.

If we agree that 6164 should have updated 3627, how do we fix? Can this be 
handled as an errata filing on 6164, or do we have to write a 6164bis?

Thanks,

Wes George
