Any grounds or explanation for this opinion? How is text that
highlights a deductive-logic consequence of the specification a
change?
RFC 6698 is a document which reflects the consensus of the IETF at
the time it was published. The substantive change I mentioned is a
change to that consensus. I look at it this way: if I am
implementing a specification documented through a RFC I don't want
the RFC to be changed as it can affect my implementation. There are
disadvantages to that, e.g. when there is a defect in the specification.

P.S. I saw your other message. I have to do some reading before
sending a reply.
