I think that's absurd: by designating a single project representative, SPI would be sticking its nose into the debian project's politics and essentially rewriting the project constitution in a small way. If SPI really wants to do that, it can, but I don't think SPI should break past promises so lightly. What is the compelling need to break this promise? Most of the time, SPI and the debian project will interact smoothly, just as they have for years without any written SPI statement, until some of this board. It doesn't seem very stressful for SPI to follow a project's constitution (and so ask the debian project secretary, who "adjudicates any disputes about interpretation of the constitution" at present) the one time in a few hundred that it doesn't run smoothly.
