I feel vindicated, but also feel that Martin is right about this being the 
solution for now.  I don't even feel that it is necessarily bad.  But I do 
think we should act on this in some way.  Here are some options:

1) put a "document only" errata on RFC 8525.
2) put a "document only" errata on RFC 7950.
3) put a "document only" errata on RFC 8407.
4) file a YANG Next issue.
5) some combination of the above.
6) anything else?
