Hey Benjamin,

While you are technically correct, the primary point of a feature freeze is not 
allowing in completely new features.
It will always happen that there are changes and extensions to RFCs introduced 
for the next version which may need to be addressed first, because there is 
massive benefit to the new feature in that case. (from a backwards/forwards 
compatibility standpoint for example)

I do not necessarily agree with the RFC (not given it much thought yet), but I 
think such RFCs shall still be able to be introduced later on (well, not in RC 
phase, but a bit after the feature freeze cutoff), if there is actual benefit 
from them not being deferred to the next version. Ultimately, the RM has to 
make the call (also to avoid indefinite delays or filibustering or such).
