If it is formally provably implied in the document, then there is no
reason for an erratum anyway.

I disagree.  I think that PS is PS precisely _because_ this sort of
problem might be in them, and that the process of updating documents
is how we advance them.  We do not track all the things that ought to
be added to a document during update in errata, and I don't believe we
should start now.  I agree with you that your proposal is an advisable
update.  I just don't think it's an erratum.

For the record, I'm not responding with any hat on.  I'm not the boss
of this anyway, either.  Also, as anyone who has ever read anything
I've written or heard anything I said knows, the idea that a dot of
any colour on my badge indicates any special kind of wisdom or
knowledge is not backed up by the evidence.

Best,

A
