I think there’s room for two people in front of the steamroller.  And I have a 
towel.  How many votes does that get me?

And to be clear, it's not that nobody is going to implement the extension (it's 
already been done in an IETF hackathon and elsewhere), the work on the 
extension was funded by Mozilla, and there's been an outstanding request for 
this in Bugzilla.  What's not being implemented is the proposed changes.

 

But, it's clear that those guys don't intend to compromise and we're going to 
be deadlocked pretty much forever unless someone does something.  That's not 
going to be Viktor and it's not going to be the chairs, so I guess it's me.

I’m actually fine with that.  You have to consider P_{extension implemented and 
used}.

 

Different people will disagree about the value of P.

Making things more complicated with no obvious benefit just makes things

I oppose adding two bytes for some nebulous future purpose.

 

The consequence of this opinion would be this:

 

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-asmithee-tls-dnssec-downprot-00

 

Which is a lot of complexity for one TLS extension to define the behaviour of 
another TLS extension. And it still adds two bytes in the 2nd extension.

 

So if you believe more simplicity is better, then you made the wrong choice.
