In the context of that statement in RFC2223bis, I think we're best off just saying that the BIND document updates 2518, and not 3253. It just isn't the case that the BIND document "can only be used in conjunction with" 3253, while this is the case for 2518. In addition, there really is no pressing need to get a connection between BIND and 3253.
