Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

With respect to editing final peps, I think this issue should be closed. The 
current PEP 1 statement accurately describes what we do, which is that in 
general we do not edit final peps. Moreover, Chris has not submitted a patch 
and I doubt anyone else knows what he thought he might add or where,

The only related question I have is in relation to Martin's point 3.
https://docs.python.org/devguide/documenting.html#id3
has the following:

pep
    A reference to a Python Enhancement Proposal. This generates appropriate 
index entries. The text “PEP number” is generated; in the HTML output, this 
text is a hyperlink to an online copy of the specified PEP.

Should we add something like "Such links should not be a substitute for 
properly documenting the language in the manuals."
