As an relevant side-note, I will observe that there was discussion during the PDP update of requiring that _all_ policy proposals initially start solely as a problem statement, and only after that problem statement had been discussed by the community would work on actual policy proposal text commence. That approach was deemed too restrictive, as sometime as a change to policy text is so straightforward that there was no reason to deprive the community of clear policy change text upfront. I do not know know if the same is the case for your proposed hobbling of the ARIN AC members, but provide it as related background.
