:-)
I wanted to keep the acknowledgment blocks/paragraphs in more or less
chronological order.  That analysis arrived before the WG got started
and hence was not a contribution to the WG that would have been
covered in the subsequent paragraph.   However, the only information
I had (or have) about the contributor is that name, spelled that way
(I have vague memories of even asking but that was 4 1/2 years ago).
I didn't want to guess about, or override, a preferred name or
preferred case any more than I would want to do either with a
preferred gender.  So I tentatively wrote the paragraph and then
consulted the RFC Editor, getting a reply in early May 2020 (again,
before the WG was chartered). I was told their preference matched my
guess and to write it that way.

Does that constitute nit-picking a Nit?

So thanks for the obviously very careful reading and for noticing
because it, indeed, looks odd but it is actually as intended.


  thanks again,
    john
