Evidently (and unfortunately) the
IETF Secretariat apparently doesn't enforce that part of the ID-Checklist
rules.
Aside from making sure the proper boilerplate is included in documents it
publishes (which it pretty much has to do for legal reasons), the IETF
secretariat generally does not check submitted I-D's for conformance with
standards for submissions. To do otherwise would not only be expensive and
slow down the I-D submission process considerably; it would also interfere
with the IETF process. Internet-Drafts are works-in-progress; it is not
necessary or even desirable that every I-D be in a form suitable for
submission to the IESG before being added to the repository.
