I hear this phrase all the time: There is no document that specifies how to do 
protocol X with Y. You can reply that the “normal” updates procedure addresses 
this issue, but 99 times out of 100 times you’re going to get a quizzical look. 
This statement closeout that discussion.

I mean if everybody read and remembered all the detail … More seriously, 
without this document there are some I believe that wouldn’t ever have read RFC 
8446 and happy move along.  I can add a ref to 4.2.1; see the following PR:
