Section 3.2 says:

Note that because extensions are effectively put into a namespace by
the problem type, it is not possible to define new "standard" members
without defining a new media type.

It should say:

Note that because extensions are effectively put into a namespace by
the problem type, it is not possible to define new "standard" members
without defining a new problem type.

Notes:

Typo at the end of the sentence, defining extension members require defining new problem types not media types.
