I intrepret https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7127#section-3 differently: Proposed Standards are of such quality that implementations can be deployed in the Internet. [...] Proposed Standards may be revised if problems are found or better solutions are identified, when experiences with deploying implementations of such technologies at scale is gathered. That, to me, means at this stage the RFC is not "binding". Given your personal experience, I am sure you know what you are talking about, but I am surprised. > But there's not IETF police to enforce the standards, and not all the > standards succeed in the marketplace.
