1. This text is purely about contributors duty to the IETF, not about what

assistance at the time of contribution.

the rule says "The Contribution properly acknowledges all Contributors" - i.e
text in the contribution lists the contributors - unless the text is remove it
would
appear in the RFC (and this editor of the rule expects that to be the case)

The RPC is not allowed to remove content. Its job is limited by:
"Whereas the stream approving body [RFC8729] for each stream is responsible for the
content of that stream, the RFC Editor function is responsible for the production and
distribution of all RFCs." [Section 1 of RFC9920]
Reading further in RFC9920, it's clear that this includes copy editing,
technical editing for clarity, editing for conformance with the style guide,
but no meddling with the intended content.
