Not in the world that believes every RFC is a standard.  "See, it says at
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc8164/ that RFC 8164 is historic."
"Don't be silly, I'm looking at it https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8164.txt
and it says it isn't."

It would be nice if the world understood our processes but we have tons
of experience that tells us it doesn't.  A document we can point at that
says it's dead would be a lot more persuasive.
