As the author of RFC 136 this is an interesting issue.

I did actually think about this question when writing it, and made
a conscious descision to remove when I realised that, as an suggestion
for an implementation of part of the internals, the DESCRIPTION section
had actually discussed the implementation issues.

In fact I would have thought that for many internals RFCs the whole
topic of the RFC is how to implement something.
