Can you point to specific drafts where *normative* references are only available for paying a fee? I guess that there are some, but I don’t know of any. Your claim implies definitive knowledge, however. In general, the IETF tends to dislike using standards where the specification is not freely available in English. That last part, in English, is perhaps narrow-minded these days, but the IETF works in English. Also, note that I said “tends to dislike” and didn’t claim a hard rule always enforced. In the past, where there have been issues, it has been not uncommon to write internet-drafts and publish through CFRG; see https://datatracker.ietf.org/rg/cfrg/documents/ for many examples. Sometimes they are published as individual stream RFC’s; see https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7091 for a highly applicable example.
