Per the RFC, data within /.well-known/ is not meant to be a new general namespace, but rather used for service discovery. Hosting non-metadata information such as the specification within /.well-known/ is outside the spirit of the RFC - which is a bit odd for a specification trying to define usage of well-known for a particular purpose.

Generally, if you aren't willing to publish an RFC about a resource under /.well-known/ and have it within the IANA registry, it does not belong under the /.well-known/ path.

I agree with you. I also don't think this was done intentionally, just a side effect of the repository name and how GitHub pages work with published content 😀
