Perhaps the document should only update RFC 2672 instead of obsoleting it?

As for the nits:

The heading says this obsoletes 2672 and updates the other two. It's

Will change to say that this doc updates all three RFC's.

What synthesized it? The server? (passive voice obscures responsibility)

Maybe, but I think the logic was that if there is some text there (just
something), it can be cleanly referenced (i.e. "DELETED [RFCXXXX]")if
someone is making a revised version of the RFC for some purpose.  Purely
deleting it accomplishes the task, but this provides a good "hook" for a
paper trail.
