Will do.

(As an aside, why do we have a "3" in the acronym when it doesn't appear
anywhere in the expansion?  I know it's kind of late to be asking that. :))

This follows from what the guidance from the IESG:
https://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/normative-informative.html
>>>
Within an RFC, references to other documents fall into two general
categories: "normative" and "informative". Normative references specify
documents that must be read to _understand_ or implement the technology in
the new RFC, or whose technology must be present for the technology in the
new RFC to work.
>>>

Have the authors misinterpreted the IESG guidance?

Will do.
