Thank you for discussing the request with the IESG.
There is currently a working group discussing the governance
structure of the IETF. I doubt that the draft would be in scope for
that working group given that its charter specifically sets "the
standards process" as outside its scope. Is the IESG recommending an
in-depth problem statement about the Internet Standards Process?
Well, an IESG did exactly that in the early 2000s, resulting in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3774.
We have addressed a minority of the problems we identified a decade and a half ago, but ISTM that taking a look at RFC 3774 and seeing what remains to be fixed, and whether it's worth fixing, might be a FABulous place to start ...
