No, the text is correct as written.

From the beginning of UBA, where you see the first call to `classify',
and up until L1, segment separators, paragraph separators, and
whitespace characters are processed differently. So the first call to
`classify' returns their nominal types. In L1, segment separators,
paragraph separators, and whitespace characters are treated in the
same way, and so `classify' returns their types folded to a single
type "N".
