Which brings us back to my initial question.

Why is PMS considered so important that it might have a deadline
imposed upon it by the Council? As far as I'm aware, nothing like this
has been done before.

Now, if there's a good reason for the Council imposing a deadline,
there's a pretty decent chance that said deadline will be met. If the
Council can justify why it needs PMS done in a hurry, PMS can end up
being ready within a very short timeframe. If the Council can't justify
the deadline, it will end up being done within a not so short
timeframe, since all the PMS authors are working upon several things
and won't make PMS top priority without good reason.
