I'm not entirely sure I understand your point.
1. There has been no IPR disclosure - so technically the Last Call announcement is correct - we agree on this point, I think.
2. Section 5.5 only applies in the case of an IPR disclosure, no?
3. My note to the IETF Last Call list on this topic, was just to ensure that we were being transparent about the current state.
But maybe we are in agreement?

The last sentence in the Last-Call announcement is factually correct
[1]. The case, here, is that the information was not provided as
specified in Section 4 (B) of RFC 8179. If the information provided
during the working group discussions was an IPR disclosure, it would
not be in compliance with Section 5.5 (D) of RFC 8179.
