Any thoughts about this?

Normally Final BIPs can't be changed, but I agree it seems like this is more of a clarification than a change.

@TheBlueMatt @tcatm what do you think?

I suppose this is okay. BIP-21 experienced alterations in the past which should not have occurred either. A better approach could involve replacing BIP-21 with a new one.

This seems potentially compatible with #1555. What do you think, @TheBlueMatt?

Yea, will include this commit there, assuming we move forward with #1555.

Closing for now in favor of #1555 that replaces BIP21, happy to re-open if requested.
