I don't think anyone is proposing changing the definition: For the
purposes of this section, "interoperable" means to be functionally
equivalent or interchangeable components of the system or process in i
which they are used.
I think we are discussing consequences of that definition that are
non-obvious. RFC 2026 requires that two interoperable implementations
exist. However I believe that there is a strong IETF consensus that
our specs need to support universal interoperability.
