That also sounds right for published RFCs. But apparently it's not limited to RFCs and affects *all* Contributions. At the moment folks can and (rarely) do post drafts with a "no derivative works" boilerplate. That's permitted in I-D.ietf-ipr-3978-incoming, you have that as [-inbound]: | In these cases the Contributor may include a limitation | on the right to make derivative works in the form specified | in the Legend Instructions. Apparently there is an exception. Maybe that's perfectly clear in your text, and I just don't see it (IANAL).
