Section 3 says:

[RFC3986] defines the overall syntax for URIs as:

               URI = scheme ":" hier-part [ "?" query ] [ "#" fragment ]

   A scheme definition cannot override the overall syntax for URIs. 

It should say:

[RFC3986] defines the generic syntax for URIs as:

               URI = scheme ":" hier-part [ "?" query ] [ "#" fragment ]

   A scheme definition cannot override the generic syntax for URIs. 

Notes:

There are two instances here where [RFC3986] is incorrectly referenced by using the word 'overall' and should instead be replaced with the term 'generic' as it is uses the identical example from https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3986#section-3
