+1.  AD decisions to not sponsor a draft are really not the sort of
decisions that can be appealed.  You've got two ADs per-area, if you
can't get either of them, or any of the others, to sponsor your draft,
then maybe you're doing things wrong.  A BoF/WG seems like a fine
starting point.

I added a Cc to the Area Director as it is useful to know whether the decision can be appealed or not.

IETF participants are not constrained in what they can appeal, so this is appealable. The process in RFC 2026 Section 6.5.2 applies.

Note the guidance at https://www.ietf.org/blog/guidance-area-director-sponsoring-documents/#choosing.
