My thoughts on post-finalization notes are that when people vote on a
SRFI for inclusion in R7RS-Large, they are explicitly voting for or
against the SRFI as amended, unless the ballot question explicitly rules
out a note.
So while a post-finalization note is a recommendation in the SRFI, it
becomes normative if adopted into R7RS-Large.
