Because it frankly doesn't require an RFC.
I think people are getting confused as to when one is required.

Adding methods for completeness that should just be there and no-one
complains can just get added.
The email is a courtesy to know if some people are going to bikeshed.
Now, adding an interface is more of a change that probably warrants one,
but even then it is fuzzy.

Best,
