The point was to answer Todd's question about those
"RFCs have had BIS variants" he has seen: 
Informal
names.

As you said you could also pick rfc821ter as part of
the draft name, the LTRU folks seriously discussed
3066ter while working on 3066bis (now 4646), I tried
to convince Martin to split his "mailto-bis" into
a
"2368bis" and a later "2368ter", anybody
is free to
post a draft-name-rfc2821bis-00.txt (for values of
name != klensin), and nothing of this has anything
to do with modifying the content of published RFCs.

Published RFCs are frozen forever, only the status on
the cover page might change.  Apparently Todd didn't
know / believe this.

I just wasnt sure it had always been adhered to was all. The
text saying so 
is pretty clear.
