Yes, and they do compare to what IESG approved. Substantial changes are
brought to the AD's approval. This is what caused us to find the problem
in this case.

(But note drafts are often approved with some remaining "Comments" from
the IESG review. It is up to the AD in charge and the authors to
determine whether those should be addressed. And that could happen by
submitting a new draft version before the approval announcement is sent,
with RFC Editor notes, in AUTH48, or perhaps even by tweaks in the XML
file. In all cases the AD should be checking that no inappropriate
changes are being done.)
