Authors,

I meant to also ask if it’s possible to update the SVG for figure 2.  Currently 
the PDF and HTML have a circle over the text in one of the upper boxes and the 
second vertical line in the last box extends into the text box.  

Please see Figure 2 in these files: 
https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9678.html#figure-2
https://www.rfc-editor.org/authors/rfc9678.pdf

Thanks,
RFC Editor/sg
