Proposed solution:

Add a section following section 3.1 called "The Language Subtag Reviewer" containing the various definitive statements. The one forward reference in section 3.1:

--
The IANA Language Subtag Registry ("the registry") consists of a text file that is machine readable in the format described in this section, plus copies of the registration forms approved by the Language Subtag Reviewer in accordance with the process described in Section 3.4 (Registration Procedure for Subtags).
--

Would be changed to read:

--
The IANA Language Subtag Registry ("the registry") consists of a text file that is machine readable in the format described in this section, plus copies of the registration forms approved according to the process described in Section 3.4 (Registration Procedure for Subtags).
--

(the LSR reference adds no value here)

I'll produce a version in the editor's copy for review.

It is an architecture.
