Because of a massive disaster that some people decided we needed to
engage in out of a combination of (what in my admittedly biased view)
was equal measures optimism, and a heubristic desire to do something
we aren't good at to displace NIST from a perceived role it doesn't
actually have, we antagonized a lot of people needlessly. A decade
later and we still haven't been able to move past it. And just to make
explicit: this working group decided to ask CFRG to do something that
wasn't going to go well, and the results were worse than anticipated.
Unless we acknowledge that we're not going to be able to come up with
fixes.

Sincerely,
Watson Ladd
