As nearly as I can tell, your position is that folks can raise a spectre of 
myriad, unspecified, abstract and unlikely concerns and then use that as a 
claim that a specification should not go to Proposed...  Until this long 
list of negatives has been disproved.

That's very creative.  It also is at considerable odds with typical IETF 
criteria for advancement, John.  It is also a heck of a good way to make 
sure that no proposal ever goes to Proposed.

So, please explain what prompts such unique and extraordinary criteria for 
this simple and mundane proposal?
