My person experience with advancing documents is that downrefs are a
significant hindrance. As you point out, procedures have been adopted
to permit downrefs, but they are not sufficient. We often see Last
Call repeated just to resolve a downref that was caught very late in
the process. These intoduce delay, and they almost never produce a
single comment from the community.

Maybe we should find out why we actually ever start a LC with
unexpected downrefs... I think we have at least two tools to check for
those.
Sometimes references get reclassified during IESG review and this causes
downrefs. I've certainly caused this several times.
Oh, "informative" -> "normative". Good point.
