[Med] yes, it is more "extends" than "amends" (as per 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-kuehlewind-update-tag) except for 
one point I'm not sure yet about. See next please.

[Med] It relaxes a reco from 8407: 

   This recommendation takes precedence over the behavior in
   Section 4.11.1 of [RFC8407] for IANA-maintained modules because the
   extensibility concern is not applicable for such modules.

 I like the

[Med] Agree.

[Med] Thanks. Went now for: 

This document updates RFC 8407 by providing additional guidelines
for IANA-maintained modules.

I may add or not the last sentence depending whether we consider that we are 
amending Section 4.11.1 of [RFC8407]. That is covered in your point below:

[Med] I was referring to this part: 

   If extensibility of enumerated values is required, then the
   "identityref" data type SHOULD be used instead of an enumeration or
   other built-in type.
