Then why need this document?Isn’t it already the practice that “The IESG will be tasked with appointing a designated expert (DE) to review registration requests against the published specification”?
No, the current rules for that registry are specified by Standards Action (Section 4.9 of RFC 8126), which requires a standards track RFC. There's no designated expert in that model. The working group wants to change the policy to the less restrictive model that allows for specifications published outside of the IETF to qualify, subject to expert review.
