I think we’ve been using this format (IETF review or IESG approval) for quite a 
long time. I think the guidance for when things are appropriate is more 
important for things like expert review. In this case the IESG is expected to 
be able to tell applicants to go for IETF review where needed. Most of the time 
the IESG review acts as a safety valve anyway; we can sometimes approve an 
allocation from another SDO, for instance, if it makes sense, etc, or an 
experimental value instead of standards track one.

If you want more words, I’d prefer “IETF Review or, under exceptional 
circumstances, IESG Approval”. I’m open to other words.
