No, this issue applies to section 16.2 (Header parameters), 16.4
(Algorithms), 16.5 (Key Common Parameters) and 16.8 (Elliptic Curve
Parameters).   Since it is for more than just one section I think it could
merit its own bullet point in 16.11 and that would be reasonable.

Some additional text would also work as well, but it is not a one place fix.
