IMO it is a reasonable interpretation to use the _latest_ ("final" if

changing "SMTP" to "SMTP or LMTP" is sufficient for that, but it
probably won't do for Mark.  suggestions?

I'm embarrassed to admit that my reading skills are extremely lacking.
RFC 3028 says, just two paragraphs down from my earlier quote:

   If a protocol other than SMTP is used for message transport,
   implementations are expected to adapt this command appropriately.

so the spec is fine already, IMHO.
