See the IESG statement on processing of errata:
https://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/errata-processing.html

In particular:

> 1. Only errors that could cause implementation or deployment problems or
> significant confusion should be Approved.

...and...

> 5. Typographical errors which would not cause any confusions to implementation
> or deployments should be Hold for Document Update.

So Lisa and Peter, respectively, were correct in their handling of those two.
