You revise RFC 8366 and do the following:

- You define an IANA maintained module defining the enumeration type.
- You write IANA considerations for the new module.
- You modify the existing module to import and use the enumeration type.
- You do not make any modifications to the existing enumerations.
- You republish the revised version of RFC 8366.

A couple of month later (and after surviving all the reviews), you
declare success. I fear there is nothing "cheaper".
