It would be useful to run the stats to see how close we have ever come
to that. The affiliations are not on the site so it's difficult to do a

and that does not happen every year.
I'll suggest that past statistics aren't all that relevant. The issue
is the sampling model and its potential for problematic outcomes.
A design that permits 5 companies to /ever/ fully populate the Nomcom is
a flawed design.

ps. It's worth applying that same analysis approach to questions of
competence. No matter how bright or well-intentioned everyone might be,
would Nomcom be competent if all of its members only met the minimum
selection criteria and, for example, /no/ member of Nomcom had /any/
experience actually participating in a working group, writing any RFCs,
or chairing any WGs? The current rules permit that outcome.
