It's similar, except that all CAs document their revocation process and reasons 
in their CPS documents. It's very transparent and understood. Have DNS 
providers documented their process and reasons for removing a TLSA record? Who 
monitors them to make sure they're doing it properly, or at least doing it 
according to a documented process?

This is a mischaracterization. The CABF did not recently commit to remain 
closed. It became more open, just not open enough for some people. Even if we 
disagree on that, why can't we discuss this issue in this forum?
