Again: This round of modification is triggered by reports from Olaf of folk who are discounting the Proposed Standard label. It makes little sense to change a foundational document for these folk without getting them to review it and agree that it assuages their concerns.
'Triggered by’ is the right characterization, not requested, wanted, or mandated by. As such those folk are not the direct consumers.
That said and FWIW: I have socialized the draft with some of the folk I am working with that I consider consumers. The feedback that one gets is not at the level we are having the discussion now.
4. Further Considerations
Occasionally the IETF may choose to publish as Proposed Standard a document that contains areas of known limitations or challenges. In such cases any known issues with the document will be clearly and prominently communicated in the document, for example in the abstract, the introduction, or a separate section or statement.
WFM.
