I think the text is correct as written.  There is a nuance in here between 
managed protocol (i.e., aspects of the protocol itself) and management protocol 
(something like SNMP that performs management of monitoring of the protocol).

My take is that while the current text might initially confuse the eyes, this 
erratum should be rejected.

Subject: [Technical Errata Reported] RFC5706 (8315)
The following errata report has been submitted for RFC5706,
"Guidelines for Considering Operations and Management of New Protocols and 
Protocol Extensions".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid8315

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Donald Eastlake <[email protected]>

Section: 3.6.1

Original Text
-------------
   The protocol document should make clear the limitations implicit
   within the protocol and the behavior when limits are exceeded.  This
   should be considered in a data-modeling-independent manner -- what
   makes managed-protocol sense, not what makes management-protocol-
   sense.

Corrected Text
--------------
   The protocol document should make clear the limitations implicit
   within the protocol and the behavior when limits are exceeded.  This
   should be considered in a data-modeling-independent manner -- what
   makes managed-protocol sense, not what makes data model
   sense.

Notes
-----
I am not sure what correct wording would be. The existing wording is self 
contradictory. The above "corrected" text is just a guess.

Instructions:
-------------

will be removed shortly by the RFC Production Center.) Please
use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or
