I like that better. I was tempted to clarify the "point" by changing to
something like "Upon receipt of a successful StartTLS Response, the
client may commence..." but that doesn't flow well into the pointer to
AuthMeth (because AuthMeth has instructions for both peers).

I suggest replacing the last two sentences with:
        At this point, the protocol peers commence TLS
        negotiation as discussed in Section 3 of [AuthMeth].

It might also be appropriate to describe "this point" more
precisely, but my attempts in doing that were awkward at
best.  I do think "this point" is reasonable clear.
