This is one reason to have multiple chairs.  When Paul is wearing the
CT-for-DNSSEC autor/editor hat, he can't wear the chair hat (or maybe he
can but with much care, and only in the absence of the other chairs, but
it's best not to).  In other contexts he can wear the chair hat just
fine.

There's nothing objectionable here.
