Well, this problem stems from the fact that the IETF produces all sorts of "mini-documents", and the appropriate status for individual "mini-documents" is often fairly specific (e.g., BCP vs. Standards vs. info, etc.). But we often put them all in one document and don't worry so much about whether the overall category of document is right for each individual "mini-document" within the document. I.e., one could argue that all IANA considerations should be BCPs (and they usually are when they are standalone), but we don't ask standards track documents to move the IANA considerations to a separate document just to make all our categories look clean...
