Following a request to look at this document, and with only a cursory look at the archives, I'm confused. The note is always intended to be included in the document itself, right? Is this change designed to compel, as opposed to request, the RFC Editor to include the note? If the answer to

Yes, I understand, this only applies to the Independent Submission stream. We ask the IESG to review these documents, and that review is technical. I don't think it is appropriate for an editor to make a judgment of whether a technical note is, or is not appropriate to be included in a document.
