The IANA DNS parameters  for this appear to have an error then too:

65001-65534     Reserved for Local/Experimental Use             [RFC6891<http://www.iana.org/go/rfc6891>]
65535   Reserved for future expansion           [RFC6891<http://www.iana.org/go/rfc6891>]


The values above 4095 come from TSIG and TKEY that both support a 16-bit extended RCODE field.  See §2.3 of RFC 6891.

However those values cannot be encoded in an EDNS OPT RR.
