There's a little more discussion of the N1 in the previous section, but in essence, this nonce is required to protect the client against replayed responses. Since the token contents (including key derivation material) would be unchanged across security contexts, the nonce is used to make each one different; it has to be client-generated so that the client is sure that this security context is "fresh" (vs. replayed). > Page 12: It asks RFC editor to validate the numbers listed in Figure 7.

I think this is just a note that the RFC Editor should make sure that someone has checked the values (i.e., the authors). The RFC Editor does not need to be the one actually doing the checking.
