Thanks for bringing this up. There are a bunch of (implicit) questions in your e-mail.
1. Do we want rfc describing the final NIST standards? And for which? I'm ok with that — in this order of priority: ml-kem, ml-dsa, slh-dsa. 2. For which algorithms do we want to assign codepoints once the NIST standards are out? Codepoints are cheap and use cases/rules are different, but especially with the hybrids, I'd encourage us to try to be disciplined and keep the list as short as we can for now, so that early adopters for which it doesn't matter, all choose the same thing. The DNS mechanism of draft-davidben-tls-key-share-prediction helps on the performance side, but it doesn't solve the duplicate engineering/validation if there are a dozen essentially equivalent KEMs. 3. Do we want to standardise non-hybrid KEMs for TLS? I don't care for them yet, but others might. 4. Do we need hybrid signatures for the TLS handshake? I don't see the use, but could be convinced otherwise. 5. What is the future of AuthKEM? That's definitely a different e-mail thread. Concretely, after ML-KEM is finished, I was planning to update draft-schwabe-cfrg-kyber to match it, and proposing to register a codepoint for a single ML-KEM-768 hybrid in draft-ietf-tls-hybrid-design.
