In no way should this experiment or any future BCP for this small
number of cases take precendence over the IETF's normal mode of

used when a working group agrees to use them.
Define "agrees". When a WG is blocked on consensus for a technical
issue, and someone proposes using the alternative process to reach a
decision, do you need consensus to use the alternative process? If so,
I'm skeptical that people who have been stonewalling each other on the
technical decision are going to agree to a process that means they don't
get to stonewall any more.
