Writing this without any hat,

Please note that on the logical side, it still have to be "proven" that this 
idea is strictly forbidden by RFC 8200. Moreover, this 'proof' can technically wait until 
the IETF last call or even until the IESG ballot. I see little point in postponing the 
closing of the WGLC and advancing the document (of course, the document shepherd will 
need to carefully write the section about the rough WG consensus).

I'm not sure how the document could advance with clear and sound technical objections. For instance... if anything, can anybody claim consensus on this point?


Finally, as far as I know, at the IETF we have no religion... else we would 
still be running NCP or IPv4 :-)

There's a difference between us forcing the use of specific technologies (.e., a specific routing protocol in your network) and aiming at consistency in our specs.


We are a standards organization. If we can't keep our specs consistent, and we violate our specs at will, I'm not sure our work will be taken seriously.

Thanks,
