I read and reviewed 05 as a document that intended to have a plausible
way forward for removing leaders.  The IESG alone changed that to a
statement that leaders cannot be removed.

I'm sorry I did not clearly state my concern, but that transition from a
document that tries to support removing leaders but has a buggy
mechanism to one that does not support leaders has all the problems I
describe.

More over, the inability to remove leaders seems to be a inadequacy of
the procedures in the sense of RFC 2026 6.5.1 and 6.5.3.
This message is not any sort of formal process; it is simply a posting
to the ietf list.
However, my disagreement is that strong.
