I think you're saying that there shouldn't be; at this instant, there
actually is such a requirement.

Actually, there isn't, technically, a requirement for a BOF to form a WG.  It
is so often done that we think of a BOF as a necessary step, but the
standards BCPs don't require one and, in fact, the PCP WG was recently formed
without at BOF.


The IESG periodically imposes a higher bar to process than formal rules require.

My impression is that it /is/ sometimes possible to form a wg without having a
BOF but that the IESG treats the case with skepticism and hence it is strongly
discouraged by the cognizant AD who is shepherding the nascent working group
leaders.
