Yeah, and that was stupid of me.

The security considerations already contains a statement to this effect:

Location URIs MUST only be disclosed to authorized Location
Recipients.

As for the 2119 language, a reference to the above statement should do:

OLD:
In order to comply with these rules, a Location Recipient
MUST NOT redistribute a location URI without express
permission. Depending on the access control model, the
location URI might be secret (see Section 3.3 of
[RFC5808]).
NEW:
For location URIs that are use possession as a component of
authorization, the protecting the secrecy of the URI is
necessary in order to comply with this requirement (see
Section 6).
