I do think that a unified set of requirements is a big step in the right 
direction and should simplify things.

This is worthy of discussion.  However, I suggest this should be a different 
policy proposal.

We seem to be developing a consensus around the idea of a single unified set of 
requirements for end-users and ISPs, I wouldn't say we are there yet, but it is 
looking interesting.  However, consensus can be a fragile thing, pile too much 
on and you can break it and accomplish nothing.  It worries me that adding this 
to the current proposal would be too much for it.

I think a single unified set of requirements for end-users and ISPs is an 
extremely important idea and I would not want to see it get lost in another 
argument about removing needs basis or even a radical change to what justifies 
need.
