It has improved massively.  I wasn't commenting on that.

Yes, the rules are different, just as the rules for Informational RFCs
are different from standards track RFCs.  That's why the idea of a new
RFC sub-category make sense.

Maybe.  But it seems sort of heavyweight to me.

ION is a brand new publication mechanism.

That makes it the most heavyweight alternative possible, in terms of total cost. Whether it imposes more or less 'weight' onto the users is only one of the issues, and my point about defining a new RFC category specified a lighterweight overhead than for, say, a standards-track RFC.
