I interpret it as you can NMU even if it doesn't fix RC bugs, see
devref 5.11.1:
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.en.html#non-maintainer-uploads-nmus
Different delays for "only release-critical" in combination with
important bugs - and then "Other NMUs: 10 days" - which to my
interpretation also means fixing non-RC bugs.
Of course you should always give the maintainer a chance to react though.
