Dhruv: But in this case we are proposing to use "updates" because we want
to update a sentence in RFC 7470.
This is the proposed text change in Samuel's attachment -

[RFC7470] stated that:

"Enterprise Numbers are assigned by IANA and managed through an
IANA registry [RFC2578]".

This document updates [RFC7470] and replaces this text with:

"Enterprise Numbers are assigned by IANA and managed through the
"Private Enterprise Numbers (PENs)" registry as described in
[RFC9371]."
