Do you think developers will play along?
Oh, they're finally enforcing some basic rules on that stuff, good.
Considering that this is now a Steam policy and that devs/publishers will have to refund customers for content that wasn't delivered I think they have no choice but to play along, or more likely they'll just stop promising content too far into the future and make seasons shorter or season passes smaller.

I also think they will stop to promise so much in SP. Or they will shift from promising SP content to "long battlepass" support. It looks like BP does not fall under this guideline.
Somewhat muddying these two definitions is the fact that many games creatively name their Battle Passes, sometimes even calling them Season Passes, but for the purposes of this documentation, we’ll keep these functional definitions separate.

Thinking about Atlus not including The Answer in their season pass of Persona 3 because its an "expansion" and not a "DLC". I'm not sure this will change much.

Well, at least the customer would know before that this part of the game will not be part of the Season Pass. So,they may skip on the Season Pass all along as it does not contain what they wanted.
It is more information. It should be helfpul anyway. It's a shame anyway that the answer has to be purchased extra after the generous price of Persona 3 Reloaded O.o

If devs will not include The Answer on the list of Season Pass content, then I don't see how they would be to blame.
It is fans expectation that Season Pass will include everything. Because it used to be a thing in the past. You buy SP and you get all post-release content. Look what the Borderlands series is doing for a few years now. Season pass is a way to milk more money upfront, and then often under-deliver.
If there is more clarity from the start on what is included in the season pass, then users can't complain that additional content that was not listed with SP is not past of SP. "What you see is what you get".

They still don't need to be very specific. "Season pass includes some new weapons and skins for your furry friend" looks like an adequate description. But we will need to see how it works out. Devs may make 50 "DLCs" with one skin in each, and list it all in the description. That is not something easy to read

Developers can re-schedule the Season Pass content themselves once, any further delays with Steam approval. If developers cancel DLC planned for the Season Pass, customers can get a refund for the value of unreleased content.
