Section 8.1 says:

        Retransmissions of Link State Update packets are ALWAYS sent
        directly to the neighbor. On multi-access networks, this means
        that retransmissions should be sent to the neighbor's IP
        address.

       

It should say:

        Retransmissions of Link State Update packets and Link State
        Update packets sent in response to Link State Request packets
        are ALWAYS sent directly to the neighbor. On multi-access
        networks, this means that retransmissions should be sent to
        the neighbor's IP address.

       

Notes:

One more place requiring clarification with respect to the Link State Update packets sent in response to Link State Request packets.
