John has a reasonable point about writing up an explanation, and we
have had volunteers to do so.


The IETF has some history moving documents to Historic status. I have not noticed that it has a track record of requiring documents to explain the actions for these earlier examples.

If indeed we've been doing it, what are these precedents? If we haven't, why start now?

What is the compelling community requirement that demands this significant bit of extra work be imposed as a barrier to change in status?

Extra work needs to have compelling extra benefit.
