That sounds like an editorial error to me.

"any ranges to be *reserved* for .... "Unassigned"..."

doesn't make any sense at all. They are not reserved.
Yes, that is a type of error, but the meaning is that unassigned and
reserved values MUST (yes, must, that is in RFC 5226; see citation
below) be mentioned.

I do not see a citation "below".
I meant in the previous message.

Please cite where the spec says "must" or "MUST".

...
The strings registries are rather exceptions from the rule I cited
above.

Well, we have many of them. The rules should takes those into account.
That, IMO, was the mistake of authors of RFC 5226 that didn't take the
text registries into considerations. We have no way to correct that now.

We can raise errata, and have the authors and the IESG approve them. We can also use common sense, and note that IANA apparently doesn't enforce these rules when they do not make sense.

Best regards, Julian
