Section 1.1 says:

   This document uses the Augmented Backus-Naur Form (ABNF) [RFC5234]
   notation of [RFC7230], including the #rule, and explicitly includes
   the following rules from it: quoted-string, token, SP (space), BWS
   (bad whitespace), OWS (optional whitespace), RWS (required
   whitespace), LOALPHA, DIGIT.

It should say:

   This document uses the Augmented Backus-Naur Form (ABNF) [RFC5234]
   notation of [RFC7230], including the #rule, and explicitly includes
   the following rules from it: quoted-string, token, SP (space), BWS
   (bad whitespace), OWS (optional whitespace), RWS (required
   whitespace), DIGIT. It also uses the following additional rule:

   LOALPHA = %x61-7A

   

Notes:

I can't find a definition of LOALPHA in RFC5234 or RFC7230. I see a definition in RFC2616, which seems to have been dropped in the update.
