I suggest that the section start with a paragraph that explains that: A PExID is a 32-bit unsigned integer encoded in network standard byte order. It is used in an experimental protocol by being prepended to the protocol's transport data, in front of each separate message or byte stream. PExIDs MUST be registered in the registry created by this document.Hmmm, indeed, why not put that paragraph in the introduction, so someone reading the introduction can learn what a PExID is, not just the idea?

I also think a possibly slightly "thinner" version of the above text would be a really nice addition as a part of the intro, where the PExID is first mentioned!
I'd also encourage this to provide an expansion of the PExID term when it is first used.
... although, I think the current text probably needs to remain describe the normative requirements presented in section 4.
