You mean instead of a BCP? Doesn't really change anything, because it's all a matter of IESG discretion anyway.

If you mean an Info RFC paraphasing a paywalled standard, then again considering IEEE 1588, it's >500 pages long. Paraphrasing that in an RFC without any copyright violation would be an unreasonable amount of work.

Personally, I don't think the IETF should cite such documents. Openness should be a value.

But even considering that source of disagreement, what is the document at hand trying to accomplish?

Here is a Standards Track RFC that already cites IEEE 1588:
