In fact we had just that for PHP 8.5. The “Add locale for case
insensitive grapheme functions” RFC had gotten little feedback during
the discussion and during the vote, Derick mentioned that the proposal
was insufficient to make an educated decision. The vote was then
canceled and later (successfully) restarted:

I set up an Under discussion for two weeks and sent a reminder email,
so why did it say "Derick stopped it"?
I went to vote after going through the official procedure, but for
some reason I was suddenly told NO.
I believe there might be a misunderstanding. It definitely was not great
that folks didn't speak up during the discussion and only did so after
you started the vote. However I believe that you canceling the vote and
making additional changes was *the right decision*. Ultimately it made
the RFC better, which is a good thing.
My policy RFC is explicitly saying that canceling the vote in cases like
this is allowed.
My understanding is that he didn't take part in the discussion on
"Under Discussion" and didn't even vote.
Why is there such a difference in perception?
