If you say "I support publication," in IETF last call without saying why, you are arguably wasting other peoples' time. If you say "I read the document and I think it's technically solid; furthermore, it addresses a real need," then you've spent a solid 5 seconds more typing, and we have something to go on. Keep your carbon paper in the drawer where it belongs.
