The IAB and IESG control STD1, and have every right and in fact a
responsibility to say what status they think any document has.  You or
anyone else can disagree and have your own list.

The "historicization" of RFC 1227 provides an interesting example of
this.  Without speculating on the motivations behind that decision,
I think it does provide a clear example of an explicitly experimental
protocol that was actually getting significant use at the time being
declared historic.
