I also fail to see how this affects interoperability, which is why I
submitted it as an editorial errata instead of a technical errata.  This
change is about as significant as
<http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?eid=3162>, except maybe
less so because people sometimes cite section numbers while nobody will
ever cite this particular line.

If the change was technical and substantial, I would have submitted a
bis or update draft.

Someone unfamiliar with the SIDR working group might be confused by
mention of SIDR.  (Just like someone stumbling across a typo might be
distracted a bit.)

This is just a readability fix, nothing more.  I think the more
important question is:  Is the suggested change correct?
