This seems very foreign to the concept of free scholarly exchange and
the notion of copyright. ...

Yes, at least some of those who are objecting to the existence of an IETF
I-D repository have not taken to heart the notions that they expect to be
applied to ideas expressed in C.  They are demanding more control on
published English than on published program source.  Neither the BSD
copyright nor FSF "copyleft" give as much control to authors as some I-D
authors would like.
