Yes.  It would be nice if the IESG could find a better way.
I think that we need a better articulated process for -bis documents.

Contrarily, I think -bis documents are an excellent place to fill in the gap for missing operational and security considerations. My specific concern was the usual "patch" documents we do that adds a minor feature on top of a larger base one.

I'm still not thrilled by the idea of "here's giant boilerplate to consider".  But that's the challenge of what your instructions are - have you considered this, and how do you convey that you've done so.  Devolution to checklist is abhorrent.
