In section https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/#update which specifies how to update a post, nothing is mentioned about the HTTP Method required. I would expect a PUT or a POST if side effects.

This sentence is meant to indicate that you use a POST request:

Updating entries is done with a JSON post describing the changes to make.

It should have probably used capital letters for "POST".

Yup it currently says:

Micropub servers SHOULD support updating posts, including adding and removing individual properties as described in this section.

Updating entries is done with a JSON post describing the changes to make.

What about:

Micropub servers SHOULD support updating entries, including adding and removing individual properties as described in this section.

Updating entries is done by sending an HTTP POST with a JSON payload describing the changes to make.
