RFC8410 / RFC8037 incompatibility

Hi Crypto Experts,

Please pardon my ignorance regarding curve25519, but I ran into problems [*] trying to recreate the sample certificate:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8410#section-10.2

Reading
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8037#section-3.2
indicates that signing using an ECDH key MUST NOT be doable as well.

Personally I don't see any use of a self-signed encryption certificate so maybe this is just a bad example...kind of edge case.

Regards,
Anders
