That seems reasonable.

Les, I encourage you not to wait for the end of IESG review to make the change, 
if you’re going to — maybe it will help someone else even though Warren did 
extra work (sorry Warren, I tried).

Warren -
Thanx for the thoughtful (and entertaining [Image removed by sender. 😊] ) 
review.
I have no objection to adding a forward reference to the "changes" section for 
both this document and draft-ietf-lsr-rfc8920bis. My only concern is whether 
this violates the guideline that the "abstract should be complete in itself".

Yah, that did bother me slightly — but I decided to just ignore the sense of 
disquiet and hope it was just me :-)  Another option would just be to have 
something towards the start of the Introduction saying something similar?

---------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENT:

I initially wrote this up as a DISCUSS position, but made it NoObjection 
instead because it didn't strictly fit the DISCUSS criteria -- that said, I
*do* think that it is important and would really appreciate it if you'd 
strongly consider addressing it (it's also IMO a trivial update!).
I reviewed this document on a plane, and had a bunch of comments... but it was
only when I came to ballot that and I saw John Scudder's note of "Note that 
this document is a tightly-scoped update to RFC 8919. Prudent reviewers will 
focus on the diff vs. 8919 [1], and *not* try to do a detailed/full document 
review." - it would have been great to know that before reading the document!
Knowing what has changed in a -bis is really important - it lets the reader 
know if they actually have to bother reading the new document. This information
*does* exist in this document, but it is buried in the RFC equivalent of the 
bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on 
the door saying 'Beware of the Leopard.” (Section 9, between Security 
Considerations and References)
Normally, in an "Updates" document we'd say (in the Abstract) something like
"This document updates RFC 8919 by x and y and z". This is somewhat harder to
do in a grammatically correct manner with Obsoletes, but perhaps something 
like: "This document obsoletes RFC 8919; the changes are documented in Section
9"? (I'm planning on balloting the same on the OSPF version of this doc).
