Current:
1) A Standards Track document specifying how to apply a JSON-structured digital 
signature to data, including (but not limited to) JSON data structures. 
"Digital signature" is defined as a hash operation followed by a signature 
operation using asymmetric keys.

It sounds like you would prefer something like:
1) A Standards Track document specifying how to apply integrity protection to 
data, including (but not limited to) JSON data structures. This integrity 
protection can be achieved with both symmetric and asymmetric algorithms.

Is that right?
