At least in a couple of the recent cases, it also implies very
focused updates to relatively mature documents with answers like
"millions of people are and think so" to questions like "who is
using this and does it work".  Even then, probably not as smooth
as it should be.

I would not expect similar treatment for, e.g., a 5321bis, which
is one of the reasons it hasn't been seen lately.
