My personal responses in-line below. I've not discussed this with Steve or
anyone... (and I will openly admit I'm not as familiar with these parts are
you all are).

For specs that have subcomponents with faster moving sections, we have had
other communities pull those out into separate GitHub .md file and the spec
includes the current snapshot of that file at the time of the spec being
approved and published as final. That way they have a record of the version
at the time it was approved in the spec itself. But the .md file evolves at
the pace it needs to.

Similar to my answer above, but is it possible to move the "current source"
for the guidelines out into a separate .md file?

Similar reaction as above.
