I assume that what's actually going on here is that someone's 
boss/management/client/stakeholder made the arbitrary requirement, 
however nonsensical it is to us engineers, to list the RFCs supported 
and compare them that way.

In that case, a political solution is required, not a technically 
accurate one. And the political solution is to list as many pertinent 
RFCs as possible. This is useful:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc5411/?include_text=1

I encourage you to look at the title of that RFC and ponder why it 
exists, and consider my answer in that light. It wasn't meant to be 
hostile or standoffish. It's just the reality.
