It was pretty clear that the choice not to re-register the others
was deliberate; that's why it seemed strange to re-use the name
of the registry.

 Given the care to avoid collisions, it seems a bit odd to reuse the

 change to the name.  Given that the old registry has some values
 (0,1, 4, and 252) that are not registered by this document, the
 two are not exactly congruent even though none of those registered
 by this document are in conflict with that registry.  This could
 be worked out with IANA and made and RFC Editor note, though.
fyi: algorithm 1 has been deprecated for some time, 0 is reserved (ie,
do not use), and algorithms 4 and 252 have never been specified.

ie, what you're seeing here may be misguided (that's between you and
your rabbi), but it's deliberate.
