The translation of the AEEF ciphertext into corresponding plaintext is given by the negotiated AEAD algorithm; for AES-SIV, by RFC 5297. The structure of the plaintext is defined in the draft, as a concatenation of RFC 7822 extension fields.

This matches the RFC. It does not match the code, which expects a CMAC_LENGTH of 16 always and with no exceptions.

Possibility: this is a temporary measure, during which time encrypted extensions are simply not supported yet?

That would also explain why as far as I can tell the cmac data is never used.
