Again, this is your interpretation

IIRC when this guideline was written rpm devs complained the EVR was never
supposed to be in the changelog header, it was supposed to end at the email
mode and the EVR was an emacs rpm mode addition. Nervertheless FPC chose to
accept existing practices.

This changelog style conforms to the existing spec, it has been in use in
Fedora for several years, it may surprise you, but changing the spec
retroactively is not the way to prove your point.
