I just reread it and it seems to be more restrictive than the current rules.
The current rules establish segments for automatic forwarding between
digital stations on all HF bands and these were eliminated below 28 MHz in
the ARRL proposal. The current rules allow for an automatic station that
only responds to queries by a manually-controlled station to operate on any
frequency and that was unchanged in the ARRL proposal.

Had the ARRL's "regulation by bandwidth" proposal been accepted, the range
of frequencies available to automatic stations without busy frequency
detectors would have significantly increased, which was why so many amateurs
opposed it, which was why the ARRL abandoned it.
