However, there are certainly folks that had previously served on Nomcom that do volunteer again - last year's Nomcom had a voting member that had been on 3 or 4 other Nomcoms and several others that had been on prior nomcoms. I think the two pool approach might increase the probability of getting folks with past nomcom experience and one thought would be to include folks with past nomcom experience in the first tier pool to increase the chances of such.

I don't think Mary is talking about members with previous nomcom experience but rather more IETF experience. I agree. In fact, why should we have nomcom members with little IETF experience picking our leadership?

It makes it far easier for the noncom chair and non-voting members (previous nomcom chair and liaisons) to stick to the roles as specified in RFC 3777 in terms of facilitatng and ensuring the integrity of the process and not influencing the decisions of the nomcom. In the end, each voting member gets one vote (using a methodology agreed by the voting members), so the positives of ensuring the nomcom has experienced members far outweigh any perceived negatives in my experience.

Once that was set up, I think that the need for experienced hands would diminish - one year on the NOMCOM seems to be quite a bit of experience.
